| Summary | A Landscape Development Suitability Map evaluates the potential of a given area for specific land uses, such as urban development, agriculture, or conservation. It integrates environmental, social, and economic factors, such as soil quality, topography, climate, and infrastructure. By identifying suitable and unsuitable zones, these maps aid in sustainable planning, minimizing environmental impact and optimizing land use efficiency. The main message of this brochure is "with careful community planning, we can avoid or reduce negative impacts of climate change". |
| Local Relevance | This guide is intended for community planners, builders, developers, and decision makers. Community members may also find it useful to understand more about new construction in their community. |
