Abstract
The Province and Water board of Friesland have decided to develop a long-term adaptation strategy for the Frisian peat meadow area. A planning process with all stakeholders has been started to develop this strategy. In a workshop setting, the participants were asked to design spatial plans for the region. A large amount of spatial information was available to support the participants. A geodesign tool was developed to support the stakeholder workshops. This tool allowed the participants to change land use and water management while providing immediate feedback on policy objectives. The tools proved effective in exchanging, validating and correcting information. The tools were also effective in supporting the participants to jointly design the spatial plans.
