Download or read book Economic Analysis of Provincial Land Use Policies in Ontario written by Mark w. Frankena and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1980-12-15 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes and analyses the provincial government's role in municipal and regional planning. The conversion of farmland to urban and other uses is discussed, as are the issues raised by the reports of the Ontario Planning Act Review Committee and the Federal/Provincial Task Force on the Supply and Price of Serviced Residential Land and the province's Green Paper on Planning for Agriculture. The authors criticize the government's failure to conduct cost-benefit studies before setting up planning programs and show that there is little factual basis for recent alarm over the disappearance of farmland. Data gathered here for the first time show that the conversion of agricultural land to built-up urban use and non-farm rural residential use in Ontario has been taking place quite slowly in view of the rate of productivity increase in agriculture, the stock of agricultural land, and the decline in the acreage of census farms. Economists will find in this book a useful survey of recent trends and policies. Planners, policy-makers, and students will welcome this detailed case study of how economic analysis ought to be used in formulating land use policies.

Download or read book Cumulative Effects in Rural Land Planning written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The processes of change in natural areas, particularly over the long term, are poorly understood, giving an opportunity to apply emerging frameworks and methodologies for cumulative effects assessment to the issue of natural area changes. This report documents cumulative effects of land use activities on natural areas in Puslinch Township in Wellington County in southern Ontario. This first involves the development of a conceptual model of cumulative effects on natural areas based on existing frameworks of cumulative environmental change. An analytical method is then designed to document change in spatial attributes of natural areas and to identify development activities associated with these changes. The method involves interpretation of aerial photographs and analysis of change in a geographic information system and can be applied to areas of intermediate size (township, watershed) and to broad temporal scales (decades). The methodology demonstrates how cumulative effects concepts can be applied, including space and time crowding of effects, and accumulation of perturbations.

This book was released on 2023-03-31 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a systematic analysis of challenges in the field of Geographical Information Systems and Science, geographical analysis, and regional science for Ontario, one of the fastest-changing provinces in Canada and one of North America's largest economic hubs. In nine chapters, the book offers advanced spatial analysis techniques and digital data content to integrate Geographic Information Systems (GIS) as tools to tackle regional and urban challenges. The chapters address the following main topics: 1) state-of-the-art approaches for regional discrepancies, 2) investigations of available methods for advanced spatial analysis, 3) identification of regional patterns and land use dynamics, 4) availability of Web 3.0 data content for regions without standardized data, and 5) the limitations and challenges of urbanization and its impact on landscape, heritage and ecosystems. The volume is divided into four sections dealing with key issues in Ontario, each addressing the use of GIS for crucial regional decision-making. The book will be of interest to researchers, undergraduate and graduate students, planners, regional scientists, and policy makers.
