Methodological guidelines for geomorphosite assessment
View through CrossRef
One of the most important issues in geomorphological heritage research is the development of methodologies that are focused on the evaluation of different types of value present in geomorphosites. A comprehensive methodology with different stages and approaches is presented. The method includes two main stages : inventory and quantification. The inventory stage includes four sub-stages : identification of potential geomorphosites ; qualitative assessment ; geomorphosite selection ; geomorphosite characterisation. The quantification stage includes two sub-stages : numerical assessment ; analysis of results. The interpretation of results for each of the indicators (scientific, additional, use and protection values) allows a comparison between sites and is of particular use in supporting site management decisions.
