LAR 5304G\u00a0Digital Landscape Representation I: Drawing, Cartography, and Notation
\nAssignment 01: Plan<\/p>\n
Description
\n<\/b>In this assignment, students will first construct a large-scale orthographic base map and then zoom in to produce a detail plan showing an engineered object (or set of engineered objects) within a larger landscape. Students will learn fundamental operations in AutoCAD, Photoshop, and Illustrator.<\/p>\n
Study Projects
\n<\/b>Students will select from one of five proposed but incomplete restoration engineering projects administered by Louisiana\u2019s Coastal Restoration and Protection Authority in the Mississippi River delta:<\/p>\n
> Diversion at Myrtle Grove J.B. Jackson once defined landscape as a \u201csynthetic space\u201d, stating that landscapes are territories constructed by \u201cspeeding up and slowing down the processes of nature\u201d. Each of these projects utilizes engineered landscape prosthetics to construct synthetic space; in these prosthetic landscapes, environmental processes and machinic elements collaborate and become co-dependent. Consequently, they are excellent sites for experiments in the representation of constructed landscape objects, engineered landscape processes, and background environmental conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n Workflow Deliverables Sources Schedule 02\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Th\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 1.30\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>Conversion<\/b><\/p>\n 03\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Th\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 2.6\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Exercise: Axonometric Overview<\/b><\/p>\n 04\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Th\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 2.13\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Detail Plan<\/b><\/p>\n 08\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Th\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 3.20\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span>CRITIQUE LAR 5304G\u00a0Digital Landscape Representation I: Drawing, Cartography, and Notation Assignment 01: Plan Description In this assignment, students will first construct a large-scale orthographic base map and then zoom in to produce a detail plan showing an engineered object (or set of engineered objects) within a larger landscape.

\n<\/b>Students will export scaled satellite aerials as raster files from ArcGIS, overlay engineering drawings at scale on those aerial images in Photoshop, place base plans at scale in AutoCAD, create line work in AutoCAD, export linework to Illustrator, refine graphics and add color in Illustrator, and add annotations and labels in Illustrator.<\/p>\n
\n<\/b>1 Base Plan: a Photoshop file overlaying engineering drawings at scale on an aerial image exported from ArcGIS
\n2 Detail Plan: an Illustrator file focusing on an engineered object (or set of engineered objects) key to the operations of the study project
\n> A line-and-field drawing, utilizing distinctions in line weight, hatches, symbols, and fields of color as the primary means of delineating landscape conditions.
\n> Additive rather than subtractive or blanket use of aerial textures: this drawing should not use the base plan as a full-bleed background, but may judiciously utilize cropped components of the base plan or produced Photoshop textures to highlight key landscape elements.
\n> As a hybrid technical-illustrative drawing, this drawing should include both technical annotations such as measurements, spot elevations, contours, and underlying geometries and illustrative annotations such place names and descriptive labels.<\/p>\n
\n<\/b>Throughout every assignment for this course, you are expected to demonstrate good sourcing practices, for all visual, written, and intermediate products. This means both tracking your sources as you research and properly sourcing on all presented products. Sources should be clearly attributed directly on drawings.<\/p>\n
