2.1 Courte description de l'Approche

The prevention of soil sealing is an approach in which stakeholders are making spatial planning decisions based on the new map of soil sealing, in case of protecting the most valuable soils.

2.2 Description détaillée de l'Approche

Description détaillée de l'Approche:

Aims / objectives: The aim of this approach is to show how spatial planning decisions, should be made by taking into account the soil sealing problem. As the consequence of urbanization pressure, the urban sprawl is crossing municipal boundaries of Poznań. In the whole study site area, 53,3 % are arable lands, located mostly on loams, silts or sandy clay soils. Wielkopolska province has got the highest farm productivity per ha in Poland. Based on EEA data, sealed surfaces constitute 16 % of the city area. Soil sealing problem is a consequence of the urban sprawl process, which affects mainly the municipalities near by the Poznań city borders. To support decision-making in municipalities spatial planning offices, the data from the soil sealing maps is used to select the most appropriate areas to build new houses mostly on low quality soils.

Methods: Land use maps of at least 10-meter resolution are produced for two historical periods
through classification of the satellite images and using available local land use
information. The information on land use change is superimposed on maps
characterizing soil quality in order to detect to what extend the urbanization took place
on valuable soils. The new sealed area, reflecting the built up sprawl of at least last 15
years, consists with expansion of the following land use classes: continuous residential
area, commercial/industrial area and transport facilities. The soils under these new land
use types fully lost their environmental functions. In the soil sealing forecasts the
Cellular Automata-based Metronamica model is used. The final maps consist of the spatial planning aspect, soil sealing area and the scientific comment about the soil sealing problem.

2.7 Type d'Approche

• fondé sur un projet/ programme

2.8 Principaux objectifs de l'Approche

The Approach focused on SLM only

The main aim of this Approach is to utilize soil agricultural maps and provide information on quality of sealed soils. Send those maps to the municipal authorities, with a scientific comment on the problem. For the whole province, these maps should be made based on the digital soil maps in scale 1:25 000.

The SLM Approach addressed the following problems: The best type of soil is being sealed by new house constructions sites. People from the city center are moving out to municipalities which are near by the border of the city. They are building their houses mostly on agricultural fields in a chaotic way, in much cases on the highest quality soils. This urban sprawl process, affects negatively the soil ecosystem services by the soil sealing and also decrease the quality of inhabitants life.

6.4 Points forts/ avantages de l'Approche

Points forts/ avantages/ possibilités du point de vue du compilateur ou d'une autre personne ressource clé
The analysis are made base on the low scale maps : 1:5000 and 1:25000. (How to sustain/ enhance this strength: Update the land use information in spatial data format)

6.5 Faiblesses/ inconvénients de l'Approche et moyens de les surmonter

Faiblesses/ inconvénients/ risques du point de vue du compilateur ou d'une autre personne ressource clé	Comment peuvent-ils être surmontés?
The commune authorities don't think about long therm consequences in soil loss. They don't see soil sealing as a threat.	Raise the awareness about soil ecosystem services, especially about soil sealing threat. Showing them on the maps, the results of various prediction model, in which the urban sprawl will be still uncontrolled.
