Rationale

• Why do you think this case is relevant? What is your hypothesis considering the landscape challenges?
• Format: 3-4 sentences

MAGNET - RESILIENCE - RECREATION

As Tallinn is a city by the sea it is important to keep the coastline natural as possible but still accessible to use for the citizens. Open spaces near coast gives opportunities to develop new recreational areas. Coastline will be moved towards the land (consequence of climate change) > it requires a proper planning strategy resulting in a resilient coastal landscape

A Landscape System Analysis

A.1 Landscape layers and their system context

Geomorphology, landscape units and coastal typology

• Description of evolution, status quo and driving forces, is the coastal typology changing? Why is that? (approx 200 signs)
• add 1-2 graphical representations to the image gallery, you can add more if you like

Land use

• settlements, infrastructure, agriculture, resource extraction, natural areas, energy production...
• description of evolution, status quo and driving forces, is the land use likely to change? Why is that? (approx 200 signs)
• add 1-2 graphical representations to the image gallery, you can add more if you like

Green/blue infrastructure

• What are the major potential elements of a green/blue infrastructure network? Are these likely to change/disappear? Why is that?
• You find my background material on green infrastructure in our reading list

• 

  Green infrastructure In this study area, there are parks, coastline park, and private gardens. The largest park is Kopli Cemetery Park is the main element of green structure and magnet as well. Nearly 85% of this area is covered by green spaces and green areas, coastline and natural areas as well will be connected to a uniform citywide network. The coastline park with a lot of empty spaces. There are several potentials for recreation connected to the coastline area.

  Blue infrastructure

Actors and stakeholders

• Who is driving changes in this landscape? Who is affected by those changes?
• Draw a stakeholder and/or power map: Who is affected highly but with low power? Who has high power but is not affected?

• 

  Stakeholders Power Map

Sacred spaces and heritage

• Which places/elements hold cultural value and to whom?
• You may add a map and some images, please also explain in your caption why these elements are valuable

Seeside:

Lighthouses Meeruse sadama sihi ülemine tulepaak and Meeruse sadama sihi alumine tulepaak

Urban forest:

Kopli Park (former Cemetery called “Friedhof von Ziegelskoppel “- the biggest necropolis in Estonia, the largest Lutheran Baltic German cemetery in Estonia, established in 1774 and destructed in 1951 by Soviet authorities). Also Many prominent Estonian citizens were buried here. No trace of the cemetery was left standing. The gravestones were used to build walls and sidewalks in other parts of the city. Strong and clear cultural value for the Tallinn citizens. The former cemetery has a great value for the older/passing generations of Estonians. Young generations possibly do not inherit the attitude to the past form of the Kopli park. Existing light houses function as a typical coastal landmarks wich characterise the landscape. Historical has not been discovered yet by the team, however the cultiral value seems to be clear.

A.2 Summary of you landscape system analysis and your development Targets

• You can summarize your findings with an DPSI(R) Model or a Spider Diagram
• Link back to the Sustainable Development Goals: Which goals are at risk?
• What is your hypothesis for this landscape?
• Visualise your hypothesis with one graphic/pict
• Are there any existing initiatives taking action in this landscape? Do you have a critical perspective on that?
• Add text and visuals

• Your case your spider diagram or dpsir model.jpg

  explain your analysis briefly in the caption

• 

  Open spaces near coast gives opportunities to develop new recreational areas. This place people can garther together, they can do what kind of outdoor activities they want
