Abstract

This applied research is carried out as part of a heritage approach aimed to take into account the environmental aspects. It concerns the diagnosis of old urban fabric considered from the point of view of urban ambiances. The objective is to highlight the intrinsic microclimatic specificities of the historical Panier district in Marseille. The summer comfort of the outdoor spaces is confronted the heritage value of old fabric (buildings and the urban spaces) in order to be preserved or enhanced.The use of data collected in the field, analysed, measured or simulated allows to carry out a diagnosis on the considered territory, ensuring representation, communication and providing solutions and recommendations to diagnosed problems. This approach brings into play the multiple factors which interact in the definition of the remarkable urban ambiances in a context of city evolution characterised by global warming and the amplification of urban heat islands (UHI).
