This presentation explores the transformative role of artificial intelligence in shaping landscape architecture
and urbanism. AI-driven tools are revolutionizing site analysis, design optimization, and environmental
modeling, enabling data-driven decision-making for resilient, adaptive, and sustainable urban landscapes.
From predictive climate modeling to generative design, AI enhances efficiency, creativity, and ecological
responsiveness in planning and development. The session examines current applications, emerging trends,
and ethical considerations, offering insights into how AI can foster more sustainable and human-centered
environments. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of AI’s potential to redefine the future of landscape
architecture and urbanism.

UME will host town hall meetings across the state to gather feedback and input from community residents and stakeholders. This is a unique opportunity for community members to help shape UME’s strategic focus and influence future programming and outreach efforts. These town hall meetings offer a forum for community members to share insights on local needs, discuss pressing opportunities, ask questions, and provide valuable feedback on UME’s future direction. The perspectives and ideas shared during this event will be instrumental as UME develops a plan that responds to the challenges and priorities identified by Maryland communities.
