semanticGeometry

Semantic Geometry is a computational tool developed as a Grasshopper plugin for Rhinoceros 3D that enables the attribution of semantic information to geometric elements. The tool leverages the Human plugin framework to facilitate the management and attachment of custom attributes to nested geometry structures within the Grasshopper parametric environment. This functionality allows users to enrich geometric models with multiple custom attributes while maintaining the parametric workflow. The tool implements a baking mechanism to transfer these semantic attributes from the Grasshopper environment to the native Rhinoceros platform, ensuring data persistence. Key features include support for nested geometry hierarchies, multiple attribute assignment capabilities, and seamless integration with existing Rhinoceros-Grasshopper workflows. This tool addresses the growing need for semantic enrichment of geometric models in computational design processes.
