First part is a document providing essential knowledge of a specific AIL pilot area and second part is a record of reflection on the assessment method performance in the AIL pilot site. With the ‘learn‐by‐doing’ approach on four different pilot area, research project partners identify and gradually specify key elements of individual assessments that work for the AILs. In addition the usefulness of the report is reflected by the regional partner. Assessment reports are part of the activity WP T2: Co‐assessment of AILs actual conditions and in a set of five thematic assessment reports, five different deliverables for each pilot area: D.T2.2.2 – Existing policies on local/regional level assessment reports D.T2.2.3 – Spatial and landscape assessment reports D.T2.2.4 – Socio‐demographic assessment reports D.T2.2.5 – Economic context assessment reports D.T2.2.6 – Environmental context assessment reports Together with mini reports ‐ D.T2.2.1, the assessment reports form an input for the workshops in the WP T3 (figure 1). The template of the assessment report is structured to facilitate two main parts of the Co‐ assessment of AILs: Part 1 – Assessment of AILs which constitutes main findings of the AILs actual conditions, results of the assessments, conclusions and recommendations. Its purpose is to be used for the activities in the WP T3 (the dossier) ‐ workshops with relevant stakeholders. Part 2 – Performance of the Assessment that investigates how the Assessment and its parts performed on the given AIL site. It is conducted through a reflection questionnaire for the research partner and regional partner of that AIL. Its purpose is to evaluate the analyses used in the assessment process and to monitor variability of the assessments throughout the AIL pilot sites. POLIMI and TUW are responsible to produce Spatial and landscape assessment report based on WP T1 input, site visit and “reflection session” hold in Leoben. In particular, POLIMI produce spatial analysis on the local scale (1:5.000, 1:10.000), TUW on the territorial one (above 1:25.000).

Explain the meaning of a word or a phrase in few sentences. If necessary, provide the context in an example. Also, use this section to provide a list of any abbreviations you use in your report. region – the term region can be understood very varied. For this report we define the study region by the valley from Hieflau to Leoben. problem – the term „problem“ is often negatively affected, but problem means in our understanding unsolved, complex planning tasks, for which we have to find a planning solution infrastructure – in this report we focus on the technical infrastructure, not on the social infrastructure. Technical infrastructure includes facilities in the fields of communication (transport, communications), supply (water, energy) and disposal (waste water, waste). Page | 4 land use (CORINE land cover) – the land use by CORINE land cover shows categories and classes of land use based on digital satellite images. The land use by CORINE land cover is not related in any way with the land use plan. land use plan – the land use plan is a legal instrument for the development of municipalites. It determines a specific allowed use for every plot. This defined use is related to different possibilities and restrictions for the use and development of the plot. The main categories are building land, grassland and traffic areas. local development plan – the local development plan is a legal instrument for the development of a municipality and has a time horizon of 10‐15 years. The local development plan consists of the local development concept and the land use plan (and, if present, of a zoning plan, which defines rules for how to develop a building plot). The local development plan contains aims and measures for the development of a municipality, and consists of a textual and a mapping part. Spatial analysis involves a terminology relevant to the specific field of expertise. Above a list and meaning of the words used in this report As regards landscape/environmental framework ‐ Natural landscape ‐ Mining areas ‐ Green areas ‐ Park ‐ Public garden ‐ River, stream, canal As regards mobility framework ‐ Roads ‐ Parking ‐ Hub ‐ Railways ‐ Station As regards settlement framework ‐ Historical city ‐ Existing urban fabrics ‐ Productive areas ‐ Housing spaces ‐ Facilities ‐ Land use ‐ Morphologies ‐ Regeneration ‐ Redevelopment Page | 5 3 PART2B 1: RESULTS OF THE AIL ASSESSMENT 3.1 INTRODUCTION6B AND SUMMARY TUW mainly analysed the “territorial scale”, which is defined in different ways. To give an overview of the location of Eisenerz and the main road/rail network and the connection to other cities the valley from Leoben to Hieflau has been considered. Six municipalities – Leoben, St. Peter‐Freienstein, Trofaiach, Vordernberg, Eisenerz und Landl – are located in this valley (overview scale 1:200.000). For a more in‐depth analysis of the municipality Eisenerz a scale of 1:50.000 and 1:25.000 has been chosen. The spatial assessment of TUW is structured in four analysis topics: the environmental analysis, which covers the analysis of the topographical situation, the landscape and the natural environment, the settlement analysis, which contains information to the settlement structure and the existing building stock, the mobility network analysis, which covers the analysis of the reachability, the traffic and transport network and the public transport services and the supply and disposal infrastructure, which covers a description of access to ICT and energy infrastructure, water supply and disposal infrastructure POLIMI mainly analysed the “local scale” that involves the pilot area and its next surroundings. The chosen scales are 1:10.000 and 1:5.000. In particular, Spatial analysis includes the evaluation of the following aspects: current situation, project in progress and urban planning rules. Current situation The current situation is structured in three analysis topics: Mobility framework, which covers the analysis of the transport network and the public transport services Environmental and landscape framework, which covers the analysis of the topographical situation, the landscape and the natural environment Settlement framework, which contains information to the settlement structure and the existing building stocks. Project in progress Plans and project in progress relevant to mobility, environmental and settlement framework are necessary to understand in which direction future development is going on. Urban planning rules Existing planning rules are important to know the intentions of local municipality and regional administration.
