Abstract: The integration of geodesign with vulnerability analysis offers a novel approach to landscape, urban, and environmental planning challenges. The interdisciplinary nature, engaged processes, and advanced spatial analytics in geodesign provide important component pieces for identifying and addressing vulnerable places. A comparative case-study approach explores the geodesign process and its efficacy in addressing flooding issues in diverse settings. The objectives of this review include assessing geodesign processes in the development of vulnerability indices and assessments, exploring their effectiveness and limitations, and providing insights across different scales and contexts. The work seeks to contribute to the advancement of vulnerability assessment methodologies and their broader role in the fields of landscape design and urban and environmental planning. The findings of this study are expected to provide insights for researchers and practitioners looking to produce more effective, sustainable, and resilient planning and design outcomes.
