The object of this research is to produce a detailed profile on the wetlands of Tuscany which includes an historical outline, the monitoring of the present situation and finally an evaluation of the environmental and social-economical impact brought about by plans for tourist development. It also tries to foresee the organization of environmental, socio-economical and historical data in a GIS. We thus aim to create a geographical database on wetlands as well as an atlas. The data is acquired in time series and analyzed with GIS tools. The work is focused on acquisition of land use/land cover data from historical cartography and remote sensing sources.

Abstract
The object of this research is to produce a detailed profile on the wetlands of Tuscany which includes an historical outline, the monitoring of the present situation and finally an evaluation of the environmental and social-economical impact brought about by plans for tourist development. It also tries to foresee the organization of environmental, socio-economical and historical data in a GIS. We thus aim to create a geographical database on wetlands as well as an atlas. The data is acquired in time series and analyzed with GIS tools. The work is focused on acquisition of land use/land cover data from historical cartography and remote sensing sources.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
