Harp Piedmont – Mapping of Soil Consumption in Piedmont 2022
Description
The dataset represents the mapping of land areas consumed in Piedmont to 2022.The elaboration was carried out by Arpa Piemonte as part of the activities related to the national project of Monitoring of the Consumption of 2023 led by the National System for Environmental Protection (SNPA) through the coordination of ISPRA and the involvement of several regional agencies. The monitoring process with remote sensing updates and annually integrates the entire historical series based on the availability of new high-resolution satellite and aerial images and models for the identification and classification of potential transformations. This allows from year to year a more accurate analysis of the territory, also integrating and modifying previously undetectable and classifiable phenomena (omissions and commissions) allowing to obtain new and more accurate estimates of the land consumed. In this sense, thanks to the recent availability in Piedmont of recent high-resolution aerial ortho-images (e.g. AGEA 2021) has been able to reanalyse and complement the estimates of annual increases in land consumption achieved in previous years, based previously only on the availability of medium-resolution Sentinel 2 satellite images. The project aims to monitor the transformations of the territory due to urban, infrastructural, commercial expansions, etc. with the consequent loss of natural soil, agriculture and natural seeds, understood as an essential and fundamentally non-renewable environmental resource.
