1270 | 657 | Heritage, historic or traditional landscape? Different types of historic cultural landscape and the ways of their identification | Markéta Šantrůčková
Natural and cultural heritage exists often in the same landscape. In other words, traditional landscape is not only valuable from the cultural point of view but also from the natural one. Many landscapes are or could be protected as both, cultural and natural heritage sites. The paper focuses on three aims. First, different landscape values and types of the historic cultural landscapes that were defined by the cluster analysis of the 51 unique landscape values will be presented. Landscape values and types were defined for the Central European landscape and this concept could be applicable in other regions. The main identified historic landscape types are: water management, industrial, forestry, agricultural, memorial/religious, designed, and military landscape._x000D_
Second important question is how to identify the landscape values and historic landscapes. Many case studies were made but identification of landscape values on broader area is still problematic. We propose how to use European databases such as CORINE Land Coved and national geographical databases for raw identification of landscape values and historic landscapes in GIS._x000D_
Third, the historic cultural landscapes in the region Kutná Hora (Czech Republic) will be presented. Historic cultural landscapes were identified there by GIS using several databases and then verified by the terrain research. Their presence is occurred on 54 % of the region area. This region and its historic landscapes are endangered by both common landscape processes: intensification of land use around the regional capital, UNESCO site Kutná Hora, and extensification in the marginal parts of the region. On this case study will be demonstrated how cultural heritage sites are important for natural heritage as well and implications for the landscape management.
