LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE
March 2003, vol. 93, no. 3.
Technology, p. 46: Database Dynamics by James L. Sipes, ASLA
In this article, James lays out the fundamentals of databases and how they may be used in a landscape architecture context. It is an excellent introduction to these useful tools. He covers what is available, what it costs both in time and software/hardware expenditure, including WWW databases, handheld inputs, high-end and outsourcing.
The article gives three different examples including a four state glacial effect survey by
Jones and Jones(database not accessible on-line); a state wide inventory by Iowa State University(database not accessible on-line); and an image database Landscape Architecture Image Resource project. James concludes with 27 WWW resource links to database related sites."If any of you have database experience in landscape architecture please link to or tell what your experience is."
Thank you, Ed Flaherty
