Rationale

The visual key of the area under study can be represented by the Carte del golfe di Pouzzoles di Jean-Claude Richard de Saint-Non, Abbé de Saint-Non. He was engraver, designer, humanist, archaeologist, patron and French traveler. The first key word of our study area is heritage: in fact the territory of Pozzuoli is extremely rich as regards the historical and cultural heritage, as we will see in one of the following slides of this work. The second key word is resources: the resources of the territory and the sea. The territory of Pozzuoli is geologically and morphologically very varied and, therefore, very interesting. Its weaknesses have always represented also a resource and, if properly exploited, can represent great potential. Even the sea represents a great resource, just think of the fact that Pozzuoli was an international trade center of great importance in antiquity. The Gulf of Pozzuoli has a strategic role as it can interconnect the Phlegraean area with the rest of the city of Naples and with the Phlegraean islands. The third key word is energy. What appears evident when studying this area is its latent energy; an energy that, if channeled into a precise program of interventions, can be transformed into a strength and an opportunity for development. Our hypothesis for this area is the enhancement of local identities and their transformation into development opportunities, above all tourism.

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

  • When considering the case study, the green areas are well represented by the Mediterranean flora and rich fauna. The Vesuvius National Park includes Mount Somma (from which the volcanic cone of Mount Vesuvius formed) and contains two Sites of community importance, on which a Special Protection Area overlaps. The Phlegraean Fields is a large volcanic area with 24 craters and volcanic edifices. Solfatara is the most interesting volcano formed from 40 ancient volcanoes.Is an active volcanic crater with effusive gaseous manifestations, which emit sulfur through mud small volcanoes ("solfo" is Italian for "sulfur"). Inland, the "blue" is present in the Astroni Natural Craters Reserve, which is also a Special Protection Area surrounded by forest and presents three lakes: Lago Grande, Cofaniello Piccolo and Cofaniello Grande, and here we find typical vegetation for wetlands. The blue represented by The Gaiola Underwater Park is a marine area of 42 hectares wich include the Naples gulf with flora and fauna typical of the Mediterranean Sea. Thus, the study area presents a strong touristic and economic development potential.
  • You find my background material on green infrastructure in our reading list
  • add 1-2 graphical representations to the image gallery, you can add more if you like

Actors and stakeholders

The study area is under the administration of the municipality of Pozzuoli. As in every region we find the municipal urban plan (PUC), it is a management tool of the Italian municipal territory, composed of cartographic and normative documents (urban legislation) that regulate the management of urban and territorial transformation activities of the pertinent municipality. There are many institutions that operate in the area. The authorities of the basin work for the soil, lakes and sea shores. Civil Protection for the countless seismic activities, and the superintendence of cultural heritage is concerned with bearing all the assets that belongs to our history and to the heritage of humanity."

  • Draw a stakeholder and/or power map: Who is affected highly but with low power? Who has high power but is not affected?

  • 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

A.3 Theory reflection

  • Reflect on at least three international policy documents in relation to their local landscape case
  • choose one international, one European and one national document
  • You can choose references from our reading list
  • Scope: 250 words
