LandScope for Landscape Architects

Show clients what the land
is already saying.

GIS tools are too complex, free data fails at property scale, and manual base maps bury your design time. LandScope gives you survey-grade precision in presentation-ready formats — no GIS degree required.

Start a Project See How It Works

Get GIS-precision terrain data without the GIS complexity or cost

Generate presentation-ready graphics clients and municipalities understand

Create accurate base maps in 10 minutes — spend the rest of your day designing

Design drainage and grading plans with sub-meter accuracy

Read. Design. Deliver.

The landscape architecture workflow
before and after LandScope

Before

Use free data that's "crap in, crap out" at property scale

Spend hours manually creating base maps from GIS or survey data

Present technical data that clients and planners can't understand

Wait days or weeks for LiDAR data to process

After

Get accurate, property-scale terrain data you can trust

Generate base maps in under 10 minutes, ready to design

Create graphics that pop and are meaningful to non-experts

Process terrain data instantly — no waiting

" It saved us countless hours in preliminary schematics and provided sensitive data on building placement in the context of flooding and fire potential.

Vice President, Oliizoi, Arizona

Joshua's team at Oliizoi specializes in masterplanning for regenerative community development projects — work that demands both ecological sensitivity and technical rigor. Understanding terrain conditions at the earliest design stages determines whether a project can achieve its regenerative goals.

LandScope became an invaluable tool for their preliminary schematics, revealing flooding potential, fire risk zones, and optimal building placement based on terrain realities. The terrain data gave their team the confidence to make early design decisions that would shape the entire masterplan — decisions that would have been guesswork without accurate site intelligence.

The result: Oliizoi saved countless hours in the design process and delivered masterplanning proposals grounded in defensible terrain analysis — essential for securing client and stakeholder approval for ambitious regenerative developments.

Purpose-built for every
practice area

Design public spaces with defensible terrain data

Municipal projects require presentation-quality analysis that city planners and stakeholders can understand. LandScope delivers slope analysis, drainage mapping, and grading plans in formats that win approvals and build public trust.

What landscape professionals
are saying

"LandScope has been invaluable for our masterplanning for regenerative community development projects. It saved us countless hours and provided sensitive data on building placement and flooding potential."

Joshua Alvord

Vice President, Oliizoi, Arizona

"The GIS maps were exceptionally accurate. I was able to overlay them with flood-risk data and historical ecology maps. This revealed vulnerability clusters impossible to identify through conventional methods."

Sofya Krasnaya

Landscape Architect, PhD Candidate, The New School

"I can produce initial assessments in half the time and present clients with a foundation that feels like having a lifetime of information at their fingertips."
