Engineering Regenerating Landscapes & High-Yield Food Forests


Bridging Traditional Ecological Knowledge with Advanced Geospatial Technology🌿

Welcome! I am Your Go-To Permaculture Regenerative Land Design  Consultant.  I specialize in transforming your landscape into a vibrant, self-sustaining ecosystem. My mission is to guide you through the complexities of ecological design, bridging traditional agricultural wisdom with advanced geospatial technology to ensure you invest wisely in your land's ultimate potential.


Stop Guessing!

Start EarthDesigning & Earth Engineering! 


Often land design relies on generic satellite images and guesswork. I do not just look at your land; I digitize its ecological reality. I utilize sub-meter LiDAR topographic data, Dynamic Fluid (CFD) Hydrological Simulations, and many other databases to generate mathematically locked, 3D-rendered digital blueprints of your property. I don't just sell maps; I provide *Geospatial Intelligence* combined with nearly 2 decades of experience in Indigenous & Regenerative Agriculture, Soil Health Science, & Permaculture:

  • Grow Abundance & Thriving Food Forests, Gardens, Pastureland: Low-maintenance, regenerative ecosystems mimicking natural woodlands and pastures, packed with fruit and nut trees, berries, herbs, and perennial vegetables. Grow abundant food while healing the local ecology. 

  • Implement Precision Earthworks: Water retention ponds, swales, and keyline designs to capture every drop of rain.

 

 

 

 

 

High-Fidelity LiDAR Topographic Basemap

Stop guessing with blurry satellite maps or draining your budget on expensive drone surveys. I process raw, high-resolution aerospace LiDAR to strip away the forest canopy and give you the absolute bare-earth truth of the land's surface. Every assessment includes an interactive 3D mobile map with live GPS tracking, so you can see your exact location on the sub-meter accurate elevation blueprint while physically walking the property. Perfect for permaculture designers, landscape architects, and serious landowners (regenerative farmers, ranchers, and homesteaders) who require civil-grade precision before breaking ground.


 


Digital Map of Soil Types &

Advanced Topo-Pedological Management Zoning

 

I digitally map the physical shape of your land (topography) directly to deep geological soil profiles to create highly customized, distinct planting zones. You receive an interactive digital twin detailing your property's specific soil horizons, which is foundational for any future earthworks, grazing, or planting strategies.

Deliverables You Will Receive:

The Mobile "Walkabout" 3D Visualization: The interactive, GPS-synced mobile map shown in the video above. Designed as an optimized visual tool for on-site orientation and client presentations. (Includes 12 months of secure cloud hosting, renewing at just $49/year thereafter to keep your terrain live).

• The Executive Soil Management Dossier: A comprehensive PDF breaking down the ecological reality of each zone on your property. I translate the raw geological data into clear insights regarding drainage, erosion risks, and planting suitability.

• Engineering-Grade Spatial Data (EPSG:4326 GeoJSON): The uncompressed, mathematically precise spatial polygons of your specific soil horizons. This is the exact civil-grade file required by machinery contractors and GNSS rovers for precision agriculture and exact boundary management.

• Massive 36x48” Digital Master Blueprint: Formatted for Arch E large-format physical printing, featuring a complete map legend.

 

Fulfillment: I will deliver your complete digital package via email within two weeks from the date of receiving a properly submitted intake order.

 

 

EarthDesign Data Disclaimer:

David Sussberg (EarthDesign LLC)’s high-fidelity topographic and pedological mapping is generated utilizing proprietary advanced algorithmic modeling integrated with federal aerospace remote sensing and geological databases. These models are intended strictly for regenerative ecological design, hydrological simulation, and land management visualization. This data does not constitute a legally binding property boundary survey, nor does it replace the necessity of a licensed Professional Land Surveyor or Geotechnical Engineer for civil construction and legal permitting.

 

Permaculture Designer & Regenerative Agriculture Educator


My life journey is rooted in hands-on experience and a deep reverence for Traditional Ecological Knowledge, cultivated through farming with the Kichwa in Ecuador, the Pehuenche in Chile, and the Zapotec in Mexico.
 

My work spans from teaching agroecology in Oaxaca and mentoring Mayan youth in traditional herbal medicine in the Yucatán, to serving as the Regenerative Agriculture Lead Instructor at the Center of Excellence for Regenerative Native Agriculture (a program of the Iowa Tribe of Kansas and Nebraska). In this role, I provided technical assistance to Native and non-Native farmers across more than 16,000 acres.
I hold a Professional Permaculture Certification (OSU/PINA) and a Master of Science in Science Education. Today, I combine 19+ years of deep, on-the-ground wisdom with cutting-edge geospatial technology to engineer biologically & ecologically precise, high-yield food systems for backyard gardeners, homesteaders, farmers, and ranchers.
