2004 UC Proceedings Abstract
 Landscape Planning and GIS-Based Data Management Track: Environmental Management Author(s): Peter Schaal Landscape Planning in Germany is based on the recently amended nature protection law. Municipalities and districts have to draw up plans that represent the status and the future development of nature and landscape. The quality of the plans strongly depends on the quality of the gathered data and the quality of ecological evaluation methods applied. Geomatics could support the planning process, visualisation and implementation of the plan. The paper will present the experiences in the development of planning presentation tool "PLANalyst" based on MapObjects LT 2 and Visual Basic 6.0 and gives further prospects on the required data management with ArcGIS to improve landscape planning process and landscape monitoring in Germany.
