Preventing soil sealing

Poland Case Study - Soil information based spatial planning for soil protection

The researchers in Poland tested the effects of implementing soil sealing maps in spatial planning for improved soil protection.  Working in two Polish cities, Wroclaw and Poznan the researchers produced a baseline 'no action' scenario; ex-post soil sealing maps to raise awareness; ex-ante sealing forecast to change spatial development plans; delineation of functional areas to be protected against sealing
