The Role of Viewpoints in Landscape Planning The Current Approach of Municipalities with Extended Competence
Original language description
Viewpoints are essential in addressing spatial development and preserving significant landscape values. In the Czech Republic, viewpoints are recorded at the level of municipalities with extended competence. These municipalities utilize viewpoints to assess landscape character impacts, conduct causal evaluations of construction impacts on the landscape, and perform preventive assessments to protect the landscape's visual integrity. With the development of 3D models, cities are exploring the potential of these technologies to define and evaluate the aesthetic values of the landscape. To serve as reference points for other visual phenomena, well-defined and suitable viewpoints are necessary for this purpose. This research has shown that although most municipalities have or have had viewpoints identified in the past, the quality and level of elaboration varies considerably. Furthermore, the new Construction Act has removed viewpoints from the list of mandatory monitored elements in municipalities' territorial analytical documents, which could exacerbate the current lack of data. This study presents an overview of the possibilities for utilizing defined viewpoints in spatial planning and offers an insight into the current approach of municipalities with extended competence to defining significant viewpoints, particularly within the scope of territorial analytical documents and landscape studies. The project surveyed municipalities with extended competence in 4 regions of the Czech Republic: the South Moravian, Moravian-Silesian, Olomouc and Zlín regions. The total sample consisted of 69 municipalities. The results are supplemented with overview maps in GIS.
