- Synopsis:
-
Theoretical starting points and principles of landscape planning processes. The subject supports a comprehensive view of the problems in the landscape and in settlements within the framework of climate change from a European perspective. It defines the principles of creating infrastructure in the territory as a fundamental element of the sustainability of the landscape.
- Requirements:
-
The minimum number of students to open the course is 5. EXCEPTION for self-paying students: if there are less than 5 students, the course will be taught in consultations.
- Syllabus of lectures:
-
1.Subject and tasks of landscape planning. Differences between planning processes (landscape planning versus territorial, strategic, regional, etc. planning). Development of landscape planning in Europe. Sustainable development – implementation of the theory of sustainability in the creation of policies, strategies and spatial plans.
2.Landscape planning methodology. Main world approaches. Integration of landscape planning into the main planning tools (territorial planning, land management, sectoral planning). Creation of landscape strategy and policy.
3.The European Convention on the Landscape - a change in the paradigm of sustainability. Residents' perception of the landscape - evaluation of the situation and application of the results in landscape plans. Participatory planning. Objectives and methods, legislative framework. Examples of application in the creation of landscape space.
4.Identity and values of the landscape. Expert and participatory methods of landscape character assessment. Defining the natural, cultural and aesthetic values of the landscape. Assessment of landscape character as a basis in the creation of landscape space. Types of landscapes.
5.Landscape plan and Landscape study. Goals and content of the documentation, creation methodology. Interpretation of landscape features, territory diagnosis.
6.Current and expected problems of sustainable development of the territory and their solution options - current ecological problems and their solution options. Biodiversity protection. Ecological networks and green infrastructure.
7.Current and expected problems of sustainable territorial development and the possibilities of their solution - adaptation to climate change. The impact of climate change on settlements and the landscape. Urban sprawl.
8.Current and expected problems of sustainable development of the territory and the possibilities of their solution - revitalization of the agricultural landscape. Soil care. Soil protection measures from the perspective of landscape architecture. Fragmentation and permeability of the landscape.
9.Current and expected problems of sustainable development of the territory and the possibilities of their solution - optimization of the water regime in the landscape. Problems of water management in the countryside. Revitalization of river systems. Close to nature measures on streams in the settlement and in the countryside - opportunities and limits. Examples of solutions. Principles and examples of rain gardens.
- Syllabus of tutorials:
-
The aim of the exercise is to understand the individual natural, cultural and social layers of the landscape and their interrelationships. Naming the problems and conflicts that need to be addressed, the values that we want to support and protect
Output: analysis diagram
basis for proposing changes or for decision-making in the territory
- Study Objective:
-
The aim of the subject is to inform students with the system tools of landscape planning, which are the starting point for other creative activities in the landscape. The basis is the understanding of the landscape as a system of various natural and cultural infrastructures that meet in space, in which case the search for the coexistence of these two basic systems is inevitable.
