About the LAIR Website

The development of this site was supported by a Higher Education Challenge Grant from the Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service (CSREES) of United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Matching funds were provided by the Colleges and Departments of the participating Landscape Architecture programs. This partnership draws together unique resources of various institutions. It allows faculty and students at multiple sites to have access to new instructional materials.

 

Participating institutions have pledged substantial resources necessary to bring success to this shared image bank project. They have provided staff and faculty time, computer equipment and software, and their collections of images with the corresponding data. The benefits derived from the project are the efficient use of limited resources, the reduction of course material duplication, and the ready availability of visual information.
