This book presents recent advances in landscape analysis and
landscape planning based on selected studies conducted in different
parts of Europe. Included are methodological problems and case
studies presented and discussed during scientific sessions
organized by the Commission of Landscape Analysis and Landscape
Planning of the International Geographical Union (IGU) within the
framework of the IGU Regional Conference in Krakow, Poland, August
18-22, 2014. The subject of landscape analysis and landscape
planning has been of interest to geographers since the beginning of
the twentieth century. This relatively new area of study, which
focuses on the landscape resource patches and spatial
interconnections, was first introduced as landscape ecology
(Landschaftsoekologie) by Carl Troll, one of the twentieth
century's most influential physical geographers. Today, landscape
studies involve adopting a holistic view of geographic environments
and are closely connected to rapidly developing ecosystem,
sustainable landscape and ecosystem services approaches. Modern
techniques employing Geographical Information Systems are used to
support spatial landscape analyses.
