Bob Moore's teaching responsibilities fall into two main areas: cartography, surveying and geographical information science on the one hand, and soil science, applied climatology and hydrology on the other. He has organised and led fieldtrips to Barcelona, Paris, Budapest and Amsterdam for landscape architecture and geography students. He has undertaken research in Barcelona concerning the pedagogic value of digital video recording of parks and plazas. This informs and integrates with the computer-based modelling techniques of places and people in urban settings. He has long researched the role of computer technology in the education of landscape architecture students and is currently investigating the potential of computers in landscape drawing. For fifteen years, he was the editor of Landscape Issues.
