Abstract

Problem-oriented planning in rural areas requires a holistic approach in which the different spatial levels are combined within a framework. The highest level of this framework (e.g. a federal state) has to provide general ideas for the development of landscapes. Modified methods have to be used at the regional and local levels, in order to visualise the consequences of different planning measures. Geographical information systems and modelling approaches are very efficient for doing this. The participation of the people concerned, particularly at the local level, has to be guaranteed and integrated within the planning process. Planning in this sense needs not only a top-down but also a bottom-up approach. This paper presents the concepts involved and gives some results of such planning, using the example of Baden-Wuerttemberg in south Germany and examining the regional level (exemplified by an intensively farmed area) and local level (a community) within this federal state.
