Landscape engineers are responsible for developing design plans for outdoor spaces. They may design public parks, outdoor areas at businesses or schools, or design private gardens for residences. Landscape engineers need to be aware of land use and environmental regulations when developing their plans. They also need to account for things like drainage. During the process of development, landscape engineering will meet with clients to determine their needs and preferences. They will then consider the budget available and develop proposals for the space that will accommodate the desires of their client while adhering to regulations. As part of this process they will also visit the site to determine if there are any existing structures or land features that may need to be accommodated in their proposal. Once the project is approved and work has begun landscape engineers will visit the site to make sure that it is following the design plan.
