Overview

GIS for Landscape Architects proves that GIS technology is no longer the exclusive realm of geographers and scientists. Using GIS to create visual frameworks for gathering, interpreting, and sharing spatial data and information has helped the landscape professionals featured in this book accomplish a wide range of challenging goals. Case studies demonstrate how GIS technology can be applied to preparing a comprehensive plan for a historic streetscape, creating a site design for a major vacation resort, the successful design and managing a recreation area, among other tasks. """"GIS for Landscape Architects"""" also includes a detailed chapter on the GIS Graphic Method developed by Karen C. Hanna to make GIS concepts accessible to landscape architects.
