Description:

Landscape architecture—the design, planning, and management of natural and built environments—is a discipline grounded in spatial thinking. For progressive landscape architects, GIS technology is an increasingly important software tool for organizing digital spatial data in an accessible and logical manner. This allows landscape architects to consider more design options and to do so more quickly and efficiently than ever before.

GIS for Landscape Architects shows that this technology is no longer the exclusive realm of geographers and scientists. Through actual examples, you'll learn how landscape architects, land planners, and designers now rely on GIS to create visual frameworks within which spatial data and information are gathered, interpreted, manipulated, and shared.

Case studies drawn from the real world show how GIS was used to:

  • Prepare a comprehensive plan for a historic streetscape
  • Create a site design for a major vacation resort
  • Design and manage a recreation area
  • Visualize a proposed landfill
  • Solicit public input and manage resources for a river restoration project

GIS for Landscape Architects also includes a detailed chapter on the GIS Graphic Method developed by the author to make GIS concepts accessible to landscape architects

描述：
景觀建築是一門以空間思維為基礎的設計、規劃和管理自然和建築環境的學科。對於進步的景觀建築師來說，地理信息系統（GIS）技術是一種越來越重要的軟件工具，可以以一種易於訪問和邏輯的方式組織數字空間數據。這使得景觀建築師能夠考慮更多的設計選擇，並且比以往更快速和高效地進行設計。

《景觀建築師的GIS》顯示這項技術不再僅僅是地理學家和科學家的專利領域。通過實際案例，您將了解到景觀建築師、土地規劃師和設計師如何依賴GIS來創建視覺框架，其中空間數據和信息被收集、解釋、操作和共享。

從現實世界中提取的案例研究顯示了GIS的應用，包括：
- 為歷史街景準備全面計劃
- 為主要度假勝地設計場地
- 設計和管理休閒區域
- 可視化提議的垃圾填埋場
- 徵求公眾意見並管理河流修復項目的資源

《景觀建築師的GIS》還包括一個詳細的章節，介紹了作者開發的GIS圖形方法，以使景觀建築師更容易理解GIS概念。
