Gil Ciencias de la Tierra GIS Macaronesia integrated landscape assessment Systematic conservation planning Each landscape is determined and can be characterised by two types of environmental factors: stable biophysical characteristics andmanageable land use patterns. The consideration of both these characterisation domains allows the definition of a homogeneous system ofreference (the stable characteristics) with which every possible land use pattern can be compared through the use of common evaluationalgorithms. The Integrated Landscape Assessment (ILA) concept builds a framework for data retrieval and evaluation processing that maximizesthe following advantages: through the use of a stable reference system, it allows the comparative simulation of different land use scenarios, aswell as the permanent availability of the same reference system, independently from the intensity of land use changes throughout the years. Italso allows the use of different evaluation algorithms according to different evaluation contexts or paradigms, without having to repeat or adaptthe characterisation process.The present paper illustrates the basic concepts on which ILA is based and developed as well as its application to ecological planning andsystematic conservation planning in the Pico Island (Azores Archipelago). 2014 artículo científico 1646-8872 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=388340107008 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3883 Revista de Gestão Costeira Integrada - Journal of Integrated Coastal Zone Management application/pdf Associação Portuguesa dos Recursos Hídricos Revista de Gestão Costeira Integrada - Journal of Integrated Coastal Zone Management (Portugal) Num.2 Vol.14 |
