Preciso land
Cognitive Framework for Urban Planning and monitoring of Strategic Environmental
Assessment (SEA).
Nowadays, Urban Planning requires updated and
exhaustive knowledge of territorial conditions, as well as
operational tools to monitor the impact of this planning in
time on the territory.

Target

Preciso land is the ideal solution for Urban Planning in

that it offers a single cognitive base to initiate the
planning process. It supplies timely information on the
conditions of the territory, which can be updated quickly
to describe the changes which have occurred. It includes
geospatial indicators which can be used in the SEA
(Strategic Environmental Assessment) of the plan to
evaluate possible alternative and monitor impacts
(Directive 2001/42/CE).

Applications

It permits a single process of definition of conditions,

evolution of the territory, assessment criteria for
alternative plans and monitoring of the plan over time.

Reduction in steps necessary for the planning

process

Clarity in knowledge framework definition

Continuous monitoring of impact of the project

through geospatial SEA indicators

Time saving

Technical characteristics
Preciso land is a multilevel cartographic
database. All levels are supplied in GIS format
(feature class) in structured geodatabase with
standard ISO 19115 metadata, in accordance with
EU INSPIRE Directive.
Informative content
The product is made up of geometrically congruent
georeferenced layers:

Land cover: a polygon level with 42 classes in

compliance with Corine classification

Building with information regarding perimeter,

area, volume, height, condition (new,
demolished or modified)

Transport network with information regarding

perimeter, area, type (roads, railways, trams),
condition (new, demolished or modified)

Geopsatial Indicators relative to statistics on

Land Cover, Buildings and transport networks

Case History
Preciso land was used by the local administration
of Apricena, as well as by the technical staff of ICAR
Department of Politecnico di Bari, who drew up
documentation defining the Urban Planning.
In just 60 days informative layers were created, by
the adoption of the Technical Regional Map, to
guarantee congruence with the geo-topographic
database and the regional Land Use Map.
Preciso land was extremely accurate in
representing local conditions during the planning
conference, thanks to its objectivity and easy
reading.
The planners were able to extract environmental
indicators (Landscape Fragmentation, Agricultural
and urban diversity mosaics, Forestry dynamics,
Building proliferation in rural areas) through Preciso
land re-elaboration, which were also used by SEA.
