The site is drawn (use the base map) and lines showing north, south, east and west are added (sectors). Winds, path of the sun (in winter and summer), water movement, wildlife patterns and movement, vehicles and pedestrian flows, fire movement, and other energies are added to build up a picture of how different energies flow across the site. By understanding this we can devise strategies to trap the useful energies, build fertility and yields, and divert or reduce unwanted energies such as cold winds.
