In the process of land use modelling and predicting future scenario’s of land use, transition rules are derived from changes in land use observed in the past. This approach to land use modelling does not take the underlying driving forces of land use change into account. This research aims to provide a view at land use change from a different angle, in which the driving forces of land use change are the main focus. In an attempt to modestly contribute to the current research questions in the field of land use modelling, this research analyses the effects of national spatial planning policy in the Netherlands on patterns of residential land use development at municipal scale. In the perspective of this research the expected results derived from the policies have a leading position. An analysis of spatial planning policy provides an overview of important policies that are expected to influence residential land use development. For these policies, the expected influence on residential land use development is formulated. Inspired by literature from land use and land cover research, metrics are formulated to test if these expected patterns of residential land use could be observed. Based on the expected patterns of residential land use developments in areas with different policies, hypotheses concerning the values for the metrics are formulated to test empirically. In order to test the hypotheses, residential land use developments that have taken place in the temporal range of this study, are distilled from land use datasets. The land use dataset for the starting year is compared to a dataset for the last year of the timeframe of this research. This comparison results in a retrospective overview of the changes of residential land use in the study period. In this process, scale considerations play a crucial role. For each of the calculations, an analysis of the scale effects is performed. Using the observed changes in residential land use, the values for the previously formulated metrics are calculated to be able to test the hypotheses. The results for this research show that patterns expected based on the policy goals can clearly be found in the observed change of residential land use. While not all hypotheses are met in detail, the results meet the expectations in broader contours. Municipalities that have a pro-residential land use development policy tend to show more, larger residential developments than the municipalities with no such policy. Municipalities with a restrictive policy towards residential land use development on the other hand, show less and smaller residential than other areas. There is strong correlation between some of the metrics that have been developed for this research. This indicates that one or two of the metrics can be considered to be superfluous, and therefore omitted a similar study in the future. In a case study the success of the Green Heart policy is quantified. This provides an insight in the performance of the Green Heart in comparison to other National Landscapes in the Netherlands. Additionally, this works as a test to find out whether the methodology applies in this study can be used at a more limited spatial extent. Overall, this research shows that a different look at land use modelling can provide interesting insights in the driving forces behind land use change. The methodology applied in this research has proven to work well in general but there are certain learning points. Regarding research on policy as a driving force of land use change, this is only one of possible approaches. To gain a more fundamental insight in policy as a driving force of land use change, a quantitative research like here is ideally accompanied by a more qualitative research providing more insight in causalities.

The European Faculty of Land Use and Development, founded in 1980 in Strasbourg, takes a multidisciplinary approach to sustainable land management, in particular in regard to urban development, spatial planning and environmental aspects. The contributions to this volume (German/English) discuss strategies of spatial planning. The experts come from disciplines as diverse as geodesy, jurisprudence, spatial planning, philosophy, economy and political sciences.

This book attempts to provide insights into the achievement of a sustainable urban form, through spatial planning and implementation; here, we focus on planning experiences at the levels of local cities and some metropolitan areas in Asian countries. This book investigates the impact of planning policy on spatial planning implementation, from multidisciplinary viewpoints encompassing land-use patterns, housing development, transportation, green design, and agricultural and ecological systems in the urbanization process. We seek to learn from researchers in an integrated multidisciplinary platform that reflects a variety of perspectives, such as economic development, social equality, and ecological protection, with a view to achieving a sustainable urban form.

First Published in 2004. Presents a broad analysis of land use patterns and processes in urban areas. Land has the greatest significance for the spatial patterning and functioning of modern urban settlements and societies - providing the basic morphological elements of the city, it is a source of social and economic power, is intimately bound up with environmental issues and lies at the heart of planning. This book examines the way in which land is allocated and used in both theoretical and practical senses. The author examines the empirical data to reveal the sources and nature of land, how land is used and how those uses are changing in the contemporary city. Particular attention is paid to the misuse of land through vacancy or dereliction. He also explores the importance of land ownership and the principles of land policy using case studies. Finally, he assesses the land use implications of major urban change - deindustrialization, counter-urbanization and new technology. For the first time the overall significance of land use and ownership are examined in an urban geographical and planning context.

Across Europe, land is constantly the subject of enormous and widely varied pressures. The land we have is shrinking in area due to numerous reasons, including those that are directly related to climate change and migration. In fact all disciplines that have responsibilities for the husbandry use, management, and administration of the land are forced to address the problems of how to plan and how to utilise this increasingly valuable resource. The papers contained within this book emerge from two symposia held in 2014 and 2015, which now have been arranged along four general themes reflecting the multi-disciplinary nature of the disciplines concerned with land. The first part is dedicated to the interpretation of key terms in their context and the dissimilar conceptual approaches in the governance of different states. It is followed by papers that identify the process of decision-taking: how to organize and co-operate. One large section addresses the identification of land pattern changes and the reason for it. The papers in the final cluster deal with the general theme of strategies and measures used to steer future evolution in land policies. The publication addresses various needs that have to be balanced: the tasks of living space in the face of societal and demographic changes, infrastructure supply, challenges of an increasingly urbanised region, food production, ‘green energy’, natural hazards, habitats and cultural landscapes protection.

This book reconciles competing and sometimes contradictory forms of land use, while also promoting sustainable land use options. It highlights land use planning, spatial planning, territorial (or regional) planning, and ecosystem-based or environmental land use planning as tools that strengthen land governance. Further, it demonstrates how to use these types of land-use planning to improve economic opportunities based on sustainable management of land resources, and to develop land use options that strike a balance between conservation and development objectives. Competition for land is increasing as demand for multiple land uses and ecosystem services rises. Food security issues, renewable energy and emerging carbon markets are creating pressures for the conversion of agricultural land to other uses such as reforestation and biofuels. At the same time, there is a growing demand for land in connection with urbanization and recreation, mining, food production, and biodiversity conservation. Managing the increasing competition between these services, and balancing different stakeholders’ interests, requires efficient allocation of land resources.
