Welcome to Module 2: SITE ASSESSMENT

Once you have clearly articulated your context and your goals, and have a roadmap for the rest of the design steps, you go the site assessment phase of the design.

Here your main goal is twofold:

1. Create a basemap so that you have the crucial base template on which you’ll create your design and map your observations.
2. Perform the site assessment so that you understand your site’s potentials and limitations.

Start with the “base mapping lesson”, and once you have your basemap ready, proceed to do a series of site-specific assessments.

At the end of this step, you’ll have a deep understanding of the patterns in your landscape and how to unlock the potential of your land.
