A method to assess compliance of a partition of non-urbanised real estate with spatial planning

One of the indicators of sustainable development is spatial order, under-stood as a spatial arrangement which includes e.g. natural, social and economic, cultural as well as compositional and aesthetic conditions.The objective of the study was to define the concept of spatial planning in non-urbanised areas and to devise a method to assess compliance of the partition of estates with spatial planning.As part of the study, indicators and their meters have been developed to as-sess the state of spatial planning of an non-urbanised real estate prior to partition of the estate and to make it possible to assess the impact of the anticipated partition of the estate on the state of the spatial plan in a given non-urbanised area.Furthermore, subsequent stages have been presented in the assessment of spatial plans and possible application of this method in practice.     ...

Cartographic elaboration as sources of information about landscape

Cartographic elaboration that provide information about landscape changes are analysed in the article. The purpose of this article is to present the development of cartographic materials that provide information about landscape. At the outset illustrates the distribution of sources information about the landscape whereas the time period for which these resources apply. The following materials were analysed: Polish land register, topographic maps, master map, cadastral map, orthophotomaps, local spatial plan, and study of conditions and directions of spatial development. The article focuses on presenting the development of cartographic sources from Polish territory. The chart made on the basis of analysis shows periods in which each source occurred. Nowadays, modern technologies are used for establishing, maintaining, updating and sharing information on land. In order to properly present landscape changes both the old and new sources of information should be taken into account, also a constant modernization sources should be performed. ...
