Abstract
“A century of green infrastructure" is the thesis for this bachelor's degree in
landscape science and aims to investigate how the green structure has
changed in Dalby 1940-2018. The objective is realised through remote
sensing of orthophotos in GIS, where continuity, land use, small biotopes and
barriers, have been investigated. The main dataset of ground cover
categorization is based on the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency's
model "National soil cover data". This thesis is in part a method development
process for analysing green structures in a historical context. The outcome of
the analysis showed good results to identify areas with high natural valuesand
areas with developmental needs. The results were compared against current
nature reserves and other databases.
