Abstract :

The categorization system is an approach, and at the same time, a generic process for generating groups of ideas, objects, or concepts that all recognize them, while at the same time differentiating them into an entirely perceived one. Urban squares, as important urban space, needs a comprehensive understanding of the category structure. The number of classification approaches, as represented by theorists, has a formal or content-oriented construction and rarely has both of these dimensions. Only the stated categories do not really have the comprehensiveness to have a full-fledged methodology, and virtually all the standards that can be extracted by reverse engineering, for field recognition, lead the audience to some degree of ambiguity and complexity. The purpose of this research is to explain the new type of view and also the criteria for the cognitive phenomenon of an urban square, which can provide a complete categorization, which in this research is called the phenomenological category of the field, which is characterized by an Urban Square Comprehensive Cognition Matrix the urban capability Applies to. The type of research is analytic - an extension that is also used to explain the type of product used. With the use of this USCCM matrix in 35 urban squares in several European countries and taking into account all aspects of its form and content, all case examples are identified in the matrix and are categorized in a specific structure. Consequently, using this matrix can be used as a comparison tool in the quality of urban fields and their ranking, and finally, by modeling this category, the criteria mentioned for the assessment of urban square analysis It was also discussed in future studies.
