This second module of a short series on how to plan a garden takes you through the processes used in measuring (triangulation and offsets), how to take levels, and how to transfer your measurements to paper. 

This is 'byte sized' learning; this module takes you through three key points in the process of planning a garden:

• How to survey boundaries and the main features in the garden
• How to assess changes in levels within the garden
• How to draw up a site plan from your measurements.

This course is delivered on-line through our Moodle platform. When you have completed this module you can take a short online multiple choice test, to confirm your understanding of the topics covered. To be successful you have to achieve 80%, and you are permitted to take the test a number of times.
