Map layer Landscapes NRW

Important note: The dataset is updated daily under OpenData NRW! Under Paragraph 15a(2) of the Law on Landscapes NRW, the technical contribution of nature conservation and landscape maintenance contains an inventory and an assessment of the state of nature and landscape. Guiding principles and recommendations for the protection, care and development of nature and landscape, especially for a biotope network, are to be derived from this. As a spatial reference basis at the level of the technical paper, a comprehensive landscape spatial structure in the form of landscape spaces is carried out. The demarcation refers to natural circumstances as underlying the nature spatial structure and also takes into account the current utilisation structures — infrastructure, structural use, forestry and agriculture. A “landscape document” describes the natural, cultural equipment and landscape of the space as well as its previous development. In a mission statement, a further development of the landscape area, which is favourable from the point of view of nature conservation and landscape maintenance, is described, objectives and concrete measures are formulated to achieve a state that is close to the mission statement. The guiding principles as well as concrete objectives and proposals for measures on landscape areas are a basis for the formulation and spatial presentation of development objectives in the regional plan (landscape framework plan) and in the landscape plans.
