Land Use and Conservation Planning
Land use planning and parks and protected areas planning are important aspects of planning space for human futures. Nature, environment and agriculture have enormous influence on land use planning in Ontario and other jurisdictions. Parks and protected areas planning depend on thoughtful inventory and analysis for identification and inventory purposes. Examples are provided reports and articles on analyses of land use and protected areas planning.
