Slovenia was among the first European countries to recognize the importance of landscape. Evaluation of landscape types was not upgraded since its introduction in 1990s, therefore it does not comply the requirements outlined in international documents (especially in the European Landscape Convention, 2000) and national legislation. Therefore, one of the main goals of this project is to upgrade the methodology to regionalise landscape types. Furthermore, the essential expert landscape documentation will be prepared, and landscape features within the areas of outstanding landscape character will be digitized and stored into dedicated information system.
The role of the Institute of Anthropological and Spatial Studies in this project is to digitize, classify and prepare vector layers for various landscape features. They will enable faster and more accurate generation of landscape data, that are needed for realization of landscape strategies.
