Webinar Description:
Designing landscapes with sustainability in mind is no longer a matter of preference but one of meeting jurisdictional requirements.
Site designers can harness the power of design software, online resources, and other digital tools to meet new expectations in water efficient irrigation and on-site water management. And with the help of GIS integrations, plant databases, and smart 2D/3D object design, creatively managing water in your proposed landscape is easier than ever.
Learning Objectives:
1. Recognize how water needs data can be included in your plant specification workflows, which can quickly fulfill your LEED/SITES compliant proposed landscape plan.
2. Learn how technology assists in water budgeting, from defining hydrozones to documenting compliance with a water allowance.
3. Explore integrations with GIS and other site inventorying data, which help inform pre and post development analysis when planning for better rainwater management.
4. Consider how smart 2D/3D design technology can help realize water management features like green roofs.
