Professor John Landis will discuss a project currently being used to project California's urban growth through the year 2100.
John Landis is Professor and Chair of the Department of City and Regional Planning at the University of California-Berkeley, where he teaches courses in planning history and methods, land use, housing development, and GIS.
Prof. Landis' recent research has focused on a variety of housing and growth policy issues, including transportation and land use, housing production and affordable housing, the environmental impacts of urban growth, and the extent and causes of urban sprawl.
Together with several generations of graduate students, Prof. Landis designed and developed the California Urban Futures family of spatially-explicit urban simulation models, one of which is currently being used to project California's urban growth through the year 2100.
