Site analysis is the key to a well-designed project. In fact,
the careful and complete analysis of a site and its surrounding
context can lead to better development proposals, smoother design
implementation, and, ultimately, higher quality built
environments.
This carefully conceived book is the first to detail each crucial
step in the site analysis and planning process, from site selection
through design development. It shows how these activities are
integrated to arrive at a site plan that successfully balances the
needs of the client and other stakeholders with the site''s
suitability for the intended land uses. With more than 130
illustrations, this book includes many outstanding examples of maps
and site plans created by leading land planning firms. It offers
guidance on:
* Site identification, evaluation, and selection
* Site inventories of physical, biological, and cultural
attributes
* Land use suitability analysis using Geographic Information
Systems GIS
* Concept planning and design development
* Graphic communication with clients, government agencies, and
other stakeholders
Filled with need-to-know information on the entire land planning
and design process, Site Analysis is a vital addition to the
library of students and professionals in landscape architecture,
urban design and planning, and related areas.
This book will fill a void in the academic market by offering a
comprehensive introduction to all stages of the site analysis
process. The Second Edition of Site Analysis will detail each phase
of the land planning and site design process, explain the influence
of site and contextual conditions conditions on land use
development and conservation decisions. It will also provide a
valuable resource for professionals seeking design solutions for
successful land use.
