Rationale
The area of the Cuma Coast is one of great interest in the surroundings of Naples. Within its borders there are several emergencies concerning architecture, archeology and natural environment. Here the coastline is quite different, with wide sand beaches and traces of dunes so it has great potential to improve tourism. Then inner part is quite chaotic due to illegal construction and messy urban planning. The idea is rebuild the natural environment and create new and suistinable infrastructures in order to exploit at best the resources.

A Landscape System Analysis
A.1 Landscape layers and their system context
Geomorphology, landscape units and coastal typology
The area of study is part of the bigger volcanic area of the Phlegraean Fields (Campi Flegrei in italian). The area of the caldera consists of 24 craters and volcanic edifices which have deeply transformed during the centuries. Despite the super volcano is dormant, hydrothermal activity and effusive gaseous manifestations can be currentley observed. The Acropolis of Cuma is itself part of one of the craters. The Fusaro Lake is, instead, a volcanic lake which formations is due to the blockage of volcanic materials which created a narrow coastal strip. The coastline is characterized by wide sand beaches with sand dunes and is currently menaced by erosion.

Actors and stakeholders
The are is mainly part of the Municipality of Bacoli. The main insititutional actors envolved are the same Municipality, the Basin Authortity (Autorità di bacino), the Provence of Naples and the Campania Region. Currently the Region is working on a coastline masterplan and, in partnership with the Emilia-Romagna Region, on an european project for the managment of the coast. The Basin Authortity (Autorità di bacino) is proceeding with the drafting of the Erosion Plans for Coastal Erosion, whose fundamental objectives are the identification of the areas at risk, within the stretch of coast in question, and the definition of guidelines for the implementation of coastal engineering interventions with particular reference to the defense of the areas considered as priority for the presence of high environmental criticalities.

Phase B: Landscape Evaluation and Assessment
B.1 Assessment Strategy
- Based on the hypothesis derived from your previous landscape systems analysis you are now asked to define the goals for assessing the landscape. Your assessment is the basis for evaluating the landscape status.
- Which elements and phenomena need to be mapped, why and how?
- This a text contribution, max 250 words
B.2 Mapping
- As defined by your assessment strategy you conduct the mapping and present your findings here
- As a minimum, at least three different themes need to be mapped, you may choose more if needed

B.3 Problem definition and priority setting
- Give a summary of the major findings of your mapping process, what are the problems/potentials identified?
- Draw a problems/potentials map
- Set priorities for the most relevant issues
