Pimp your landscape - un logiciel pour la gestion interactive des paysages : potentiels et limites
2009
The paper introduces Pimp your Landscape, a software tool for supporting multicriteria decision-making and
participatory processes in land-use management at landscape level. Pimp your Landscape visualizes and
evaluates the effects of changes in the land-use pattern considering key functions at the landscape level. The
user of Pimp your Landscape is able to design his landscape by mouse click. In view of the availability of
maps and comparability of land-use classifications on a European scale, CORINE LANDCOVER 2000 was
chosen as the cartographic base. Pimp your Landscape works in two modes — an expert mode, which is
designed to support and train professionals in land-use management planning decisions, and a game mode
enabling anyone to test their visions on how to optimize their region. The expert mode provides advanced
possibilities to adapt the evaluation system to regional characteristics and demands and to test and introduce
planning restrictions that arise from EU directives or regional regulations. The game mode helps to
introduce both expert knowledge and citizens concerns in participatory planning processes. The paper ends
with a description of some application examples that include forestry aspects and a discussion on future
developments of the software.
