Project Description

This project is an exploration into how visualization technologies can enhance environmental awareness towards environmental systems and processes. The project looks at creating a framework for an immersive 3D learning environment in which users are taught about local environmental issues and management practices in the Konza Prairie, a research facility run by Kansas State University. The storyboard that this project resulted in would become the framework for the Fall 2017 Advanced Landscape Architecture Studio.
