The Journal of Digital Landscape Architecture addresses all aspects of digital technologies, applications, information, and knowledge pertaining to landscape architecture research, education, practice, and related fields. The journal publishes original papers in English that address theoretical and practical issues, innovative developments, methods, applications, findings, and case studies that are drawn primarily from work presented at the annual international Digital Landscape Architecture conference. Its intent is to encourage the broad dissemination of these ideas, innovations, and practices.
This issue of the Journal of Digital Landscape Architecture, 6-2021, presents contributions from the 22th annual conference at the Anhalt University, Dessau, Köthen and Bernburg, Germany, (May 26 to May 28, 2021), covering nine broad topics:
• Defining Digital Landscape Architecture
