Welcome to UW-Madison Geodesign Collaborative
The Geodesign Collaborative is a new departmental working group seeking to foster and improve interactions between academia, industry, and communities at large. Specifically, we are interested in how geodesign — a technological, GIS, and design framework aimed at producing designs that more closely follow natural systems — can augment the goals of such groups. The collaborative will prioritize providing students hands-on professional experience through applying planning and design skills to address the needs of internal and external partners.
Current Activities
