Wildcat Creek in Riley County, Kansas is an underutilized community asset which offers opportunities for expanded recreation, education, and university research activities. Due to its flooding potential, it has also been the subject of numerous consultant and university-affiliated studies/studios over several decades. Archival locations of this past work, and current creek-related activities, are scattered and preclude a comprehensive examination of the creek corridor. The focus of this paper presents the pedagogical studio process and challenges involved with developing a GIS-oriented web hub used to centrally collect and disseminate creek-related information for the benefit of university researchers and the community-at-large. The information hub was developed as part of a master’s project and report studio team of landscape architecture students. In addition to geographically unifying their independent master’s work in a common geographic context, the hub site also presents real-time stream gage data and is a community resource for highlighting recreational, K-12 educational, citizen science, and university research activities. The value of developing the geo-centric website lies in the impact of collecting longitudinal research/studio work, increasing dissemination of prior creek research to a broader audience, and promoting wide spectrum community engagement with the creek.
