Meeting with stakeholders

At the end of the first iteration, the geodesign team should meet with the people of the place and those involved in making decisions, and share with them their understanding of the situation up to that point. Mutual trust between the team and the decision makers needs to be developed and evolving perceptions need to be shared. Everyone needs a common understanding of the intended scope of the study and a sense that the geodesign team can and will propose a competent and feasible methodological plan once they reach the end of the second iteration.

The second iteration:

The HOW questions

The aim of the second iteration is to choose and clearly define the methods of the study, the HOW questions. In this stage, the framework is used in reverse order, working from question 6 to question1.This reversal of the regular sequence of conducting a study is crucial to designing a set of potentially useful methods.In this way,geodesign becomes decision-driven rather than data-driven.The answers to this round of questions provide the geodesign team with an agreed-upon methodology for the study

Designing the study methodology:

Questions 6 through 1 and their related models:

The decision models require the impact models in order to assess the consequences of proposed changes. The several types of impact models and their needs for analytic complexity lead to the ways in which the change models and their resulting alternatives will be created and expressed. The change models require the evaluation models and their assessments of current and past conditions. These in turn need the process models for their understanding of the underlying functioning of the geographical context of the study. The process models require data, the ways that the study area is represented. This sequence will also influence the study’s methods and technologies for information management and visualization. When all of these models are defined and made operational, they become the methodology for the geodesign study
