In the local spatial development plan for Wiśniowa district covering the area of Węglówka village there have been formed areas with the possible existence of landslides and screes. The aim of the article is the analysis of the two out of nine distinguished landslide areas paying special attention to the legitimacy of their formation and possible dangers resulting from the settlement of these areas. Among geomorphological processes, landslides constitute the most negative process from the point of view of the economic activity of people living in the area. The range of this problem is so wide that the classical methods of field observations are no longer sufficient. Therefore, besides the traditional methods, such as geological field studies, there have been applied also more considerably modern methods in the article such as: – tachometric measurement of the lie of the land carried out with the use of Leica TCRA 1203 total station, applied for collecting field points; – interpolation made with the use of the programs such as CorelDraw, Micromap and Surfem, applied for the creation of elevation models for landslide areas; – GPS technique used in geological field studies; – vector analysis, applied for the calculation of gradients resultant vectors; ...
Local plans are the basic legal acts used to execute the spatial policy within a commune area. This execution results in some legal, economic, environmental, and social changes. A great part of those changes requires some new spatial development plans to be agreed. The herby work includes the legal regulations concerning local plans of spatial development, their functions, goals and the results of those plans entering into force. The importance of local spatial development plans in shaping the spatial structure of rural areas is also considered in this work. The research showed what are the results of adopting the local spatial development plans in rural areas. The changes in the spatial structure of Rakowiec settlement, placed within the area of Kwidzyn commune, were taken as the basis for the research. ...
The aim of the article is to present regularities regarding the size, shape and topological characteristics of existing (passed) local spatial development plans in Poland (Polish communes). The source material for the research was planning documents, drawings of which were authorized by Geo-System and made available through WMS/WFS network services. As a result, it was possible to obtain information on the course of boundaries in the field, and thus the analysis of regularity, structure characteristics, etc. in terms of surface, shape and topological relations. Total of 15,390 local plans were analyzed, i.e. 31.2% of their total number in Poland. The article is the first in Poland analysis of the structure (area, boundaries, shape, etc.) based on a large, many thousandth attempt of local documents. The conclusions from the research show that the method of selecting areas to cover plans and defining their boundaries on the ground do not contribute to the improvement of spatial order and that the spatial extent of impact of these documents is not much larger than in the case of location decisions (decision on building conditions and land development). ...
