Analysis and Landscape Planning. The Landscape Project of Taburno-Camposauro.

This work focuses on the development of the Landscape Analysis in a purposeful way to identify a new strategy in the planning process. An approach in which the cognitive analysis, at the base of the study of the landscape, do use a methodological paradigm that does not only consider the data and information from different disciplines, but also their proper aggregation oriented towards the identification of Areas of Landscape from which to assess the more appropriate type of action or intervention. The National Legislation in Italy applies the Legislative Decree no. 42/2004 which, on the one hand, considers the landscape as the result of historical and anthropogenic transformations and their interaction with the natural environment, on the other hand, seems to constrain the possible future transformations only to their compatibility with the needs of conservation and protection of landscapes already established (constraint-protection-preservation). The aim of this work, is to recognize to the landscape an evolutionary character: landscape project for the enhancement and restoration of existing landscapes, but also for creating new landscapes by using compatible transformations with the existing values consolidated. It’s about overcoming the constrained vision of landscape plans and to reach that of the transformability limits of the territory; in this way the Landscape Planning becomes a tool for the management of the Landscape.
