Landscape design software is used by landscape architects, landscape designers and garden designers to create two dimensional to 3 dimensional planting, softworks,[a] groundworks[b] and hardworks[c] plans before constructing a landscape.
There are two levels of software available, amateur and professional. The former is usually aimed at simple visualization of a garden design, whilst the latter provides tools that allow stylistic representations of a design to be accurately labelled and dimensioned for contractors to interpret and land authorities or local government to sight and approve or otherwise. Since the advent of the personal computer, several software packages have come into existence. The main professional software being:
Idea Spectrum's Realtime Landscaping Architect
CS Design Software's CS Artisan
LANDWorksCAD
Keysoft Solutions' KeySCAPE LandCADD
Landmark, PRO Landscape
Structure Studio's VizTerra
VisionScape's VirtualProperty Architect
Visual Impact's Earthscapes
Asuni's Lands Design
Dynascape
Vectorworks
Sketch-Up
AutoCAD
Professional landscape design software requires detailed information to be output for contract documentation, which will usually constitute drawings, specifications and reports (schedules/bills of quantity). The more sophisticated landscape design software solutions automate the process of generating reports (schedules/bills of quantity) from intelligent data in the drawing; such intelligence is usually contained within labels (annotations) which include, in the case of planting, automatic calculation routines to determine the number of individual plants based on plant spacings (centres) per area or length. When labelled areas or lengths are modified (stretched or shrunk), associated labels are recalculated at the same time as reports (schedules/bills of quantity) contained in or associated with the same drawing.
