FSI denotes the floor space index or built-up area of a building on a given site and helps measure the bulk of buildings, which is mostly of concern to urban planners as FAR (floor area ratio) determines dwelling unit density and the number of houses in an area. Population density measures the number of people living in an area and helps determine the impact on streets and services, which is of concern to government agencies for deciding infrastructure needs.
