Abstract
Syntheses are aimed to create a basis for right decision-making of landscape, which are given as follows:
-
knowledge on the values of all indicators of the properties of geocomplexes on every single spot of the territory,
-
demarcation of homogeneous areas with a defined combination of values—mapping of homogenous geocomplexes.
Accordingly, the syntheses in the LANDEP methodics are defined as follows:
-
formation, description and classification of geocomplexes of various ranges according to a clearly defined set of analytical properties, indicators and values,
-
the spatial delineation of homogenous areas of geocomplexes according to these values and,
-
the segmentation of the territory into these homogeneous areas.
Geocomplexes with various characteristics and values of indicators—most often the abiotic complexes and landscape-ecological complexes—are then carriers of integrated information about the landscape.
The most frequently used method of spatial synthesis in LANDEP is the superposition of homogenised analytical maps in defined order of leading indicators. The result of such syntheses—marked also as topical syntheses—are the types of abiotic complexes and landscape-ecological complexes. Hierarchically higher synthetic units—regions—are created on the base of the spatial structure and content of lower hierarchical units. The chapter presents few examples of choric syntheses too.
A substantial step of the syntheses is the creation of the geosystem-based classification of geocomplexes formally arranged to the tables of abiocomplexes and landscape-ecological complexes.
The syntheses are the key step of LANDEP procedure. For the further steps of LANDEP, the synthetic spatial landscape-ecological units—the types of geocomplexes of different character—constitute the following:
-
a comprehensive system of information on the landscape, object-attribute spatial database;
-
the basis for the interpretations—the formation of the criteria (utility properties) for the evaluation process of the landscape;
-
the object of evaluation as regards to selected human activities;
-
the boundaries of the areas for the proposals for the optimal land use, therefore they are the subject of proposals.
The chapter is illustrated by numerous tables and maps which document also the historical development of the LANDEP methodics.
