ABSTRACT

This paper maps the visual impact of mining activities on terrestrial and marine landscapes of the Cyclades islands, Greece, an island complex in the Aegean Sea of particular natural and cultural heritage. In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, mining activities developed on the islands, many of which are abandoned today. Some of the remaining inactive mines and accompanying structures have been registered as monuments and part of the national industrial heritage. The remaining active mining units conflict for land with the main economic activity today, tourism. The visual impact of the mining units is calculated and mapped, resulting in viewshed analysis which quantifies the impact of mining units on terrestrial and marine landscapes, with emphasis on nominated traditional settlements and mention of non-traditional ones. The quantitative results have shown that the landscape study needs to be incorporated in terrestrial and marine spatial planning.

摘要

本文描绘了采矿活动对希腊基克拉泽斯群岛陆地和海洋景观的视觉影响，该群岛是爱琴海的一个岛屿群，具有特殊的自然和文化遗产。在 19 世纪和 20 世纪，岛上开展了采矿活动，其中许多在今天已被废弃。一些剩余的闲置矿山和附属结构已被登记为纪念碑和国家工业遗产的一部分。剩余的活跃采矿单位与当今的主要经济活动旅游业相冲突。计算和绘制采矿单位的视觉影响，从而产生视域分析，量化采矿单位对陆地和海洋景观的影响，重点是指定的传统定居点和非传统定居点。
