visibility mapping

Visibility mapping is a technique used to determine which areas are visible from a specific point or location. It helps identify the line of sight, showing what can be seen directly, considering obstacles like walls or natural features. This process is useful in urban planning, security, and navigation, ensuring that important areas are visible or protected. Essentially, it creates a "map of visibility" that shows the parts of an environment accessible from a specific vantage point, aiding in decision-making and design by understanding visual access within complex spaces.
