Students in the
#ProblemsWithoutPassports course "GeoDesign Practice: The European Experience" are visiting the
#Netherlands to study the centuries-old practice of
#GeoDesign. GeoDesign combines planning, design and environmental systems with
#geospatial technologies to explore ways to build a better world. The
#Dutch have long been leaders in designing land uses to maximum efficiency while minimizing adverse environmental impacts. Photos clockwise from bottom left: Bike tour of
