Sažetak
A considerable increase in specific research in landscape typology can be noticed since last years, particularly in European landscape planning practice. This change seems to be stimulated by new problems that emerge in European landscapes. The landscape planning practice was traditionally very much involved in landscape rehabilitation and restoration. It appears that to-day problems could be defined in an entirely opposite way. It is not the degradation of the natural qualities that is the most exposed challenge for landscape planners, but rather a rapid return of the nature into the many of the most precious cultural landscapes of Europe. Planning, both for the development and protection, can be carried-out by two distinctive approaches: ˇ normative or, as H. Simon has denominated it, standardization, and ˇ analytical planning approach. Despite the fact that landscape typology should have a broader scientific importance it is, like all typology classifications, also the point of departure for any definition of planning norms and standards. Thereafter, landscape typology is primarily involved within the normative planning approach. The way the landscape typology classification is carried-out is very much influenced by its aim. From the pure scientific point of view this statement seams unacceptable. However, the difficulties in implementing a unique and in every respect acceptable landscape classification support it. For the purpose of preparing landscape-planning norms the morphological definition of landscape type seemed to be most adequate. This definition is sometimes called landscape characterization. The main goal of landscape classification carried-out for the entire territory of Slovenia was to acquire basic knowledge of the essential morphological characteristics of different Slovenian landscapes. The classification has been implemented on a basis of subjective perception of similarities/dissimilarities of various landscape types. The concept of such a classification relies very much upon human capabilities of gestalt understanding of the complex landscape structures as wholes. A collection of slides of different Slovenian landscapes have been produced by field inspections and used as an inventory for further analysis. The sites of landscape types have been defined within a GIS environment, grouped according to the previously defined landscape types, overlapped by various spatially defined data and crosstabulated. Subsequently, the landscape types could be described in terms of different landscape qualities, like visual attractiveness, different vulnerabilities, etc. These qualities had been previously evaluated within the entire territory. The definition of norms could be, by use of this procedure, quite direct and in conformity with those particular landscape qualities that are to be protected and/or properly managed
