 Analysis of Urban Transformation Through the Use of Expanded Research ToolsAna Elena Builes-Vélez, Lina MarÃa Suárez Vásquez, Leonardo Correa Velásquez and Diana Carolina Gutiérrez Aristizábal SAGE Open, 2021, vol. 11, issue 3, 21582440211038307 Abstract: In recent years, urban design development has been an important topic in Latin American cities such as MedellÃn due to the transformation of their urban spaces, along with the new methods used to evaluate the social, morphological, and, in some cases, economic impacts that have been brought about by the urban development projects. When inquiring about the development process and impact of urban studies, and the inhabitants’ relation to a transformed space, it is important to establish the context within which images, drawings, and photographs are analyzed, using graphical approaches triangulated with other research methods to define comparative criteria. In this article, we reflect on the expanded use of various research tools for the analysis of urban transformation, taking with reference the experience lived by a group of researchers in two Latin American cities. From this, it is intended to understand how they work and how they allow us to understand the urban transformation of these cities, the data obtained, and the vision of the researchers.
