The concept landscape architecture includes landscape planning, design and creation, as well as the management of resources and buildings. With reference to smaller scale projects the design stage and planning are referred to as landscape design.

The convenience of ConceptDraw is that although you can only place available library objects on the page of the document, you can always create an object and add it to your own library for later use. Objects in ConceptDraw can be connected to each other or to a group. For example, if you show a water pipe in the form of a connection between two final points, when moving these points it will automatically be extended or shortened. As the plan created using ConceptDraw is not a static document, it can be used not only in the work of landscape architects and engineers, but also by landscape managers who maintain artificial landscapes such as parks and gardens, or natural landscapes like woodlands or nature reserves. The landscape manager or engineer can easily transfer ConceptDraw objects of landscape design directly to a document in order to view the end result, as well as use ConceptDraw smart objects to understand their physical influence on the environment. For example, how the shadow from an object will change depending on the position of the sun, how the finished work will look when viewed from a different angle such as the window of a building, what changes the addition of new objects to an existing landscape will make, or even how much a tree will bend in a strong wind. | ||||
