ABSTRACT

Recently the conservation policies in Europe are considering the problem of the urban
increasing in terms of soil destroyed and ecosystem fragmentation effects.

In Italy this phenomenon is becoming particularly important if we consider it at national
level, but also at regional level. The paper has the goal to show some data relative to the
distribution and the impact of urban surfaces on the large landscape national units,
comparing the values among the units kind.

Moreover will be implemented the data relative to some regional situation (Lazio,
Veneto, Umbria) of the Italian peninsula for having the indication about different
environmental conditions as, for example, coastal areas, mountain areas or hill areas or
also flat areas and different morphological structures.

These data will be compared with other territorial characteristics, as the protected areas
distribution and the biopermeability areas distribution.

The knowledge of this information is very important for the planning action because it
is possible to obtain, by means of particular GIS models, indications about the urban
sensibility of the different land parts in the future.
