Habitats

Users are invited to create multiple habitats, which are spaces that relate all of the possible functions that can be carried out in the world, on all possible scales.
All of the core functions, initially addressed in terms of the work of urban ecologist Salvador Rueda, have been summarized in 21 categories that should be capable of accommodating any activity or building people wish to propose.
The scalar relations between functions constitute one of the most significant contributions made by this model, to demonstrate that any object, and any building may be related nodes of a network of larger scale. From a crucifix (scale 1) to the Vatican (scale 1,000,000,000), a lamp (scale 1) to a nuclear power station (scale 10,000,000).

The habitats may be on the scale of the neighbourhood, the city (this would be very useful for studying the urbanity of its relational form), the country, or the planet.

For a habitat to be operational it is first necessary to upload nodes on multiple scales.

A habitat can contain a specific set of objects, and be created to draw a line code.
