New environmental problems require new models for territorial study and innovative management strategies. The aim of enhancing local resources can be achieved only by directing development policies towards a path of integration between landscape protection, and socio-economic and cultural requirements. These functions can only be based on knowledge, enabled by new themes, such as wine production, and disseminated through new media, such as sports or film. Landscape is the key to the reading and cartography is the tool. With modern geographic information systems, each mapping process is associated with a database that indicates the value of each graphic element.

Abstract
New environmental problems require new models for territorial study and innovative management strategies. The aim of enhancing local resources can be achieved only by directing development policies towards a path of integration between landscape protection, and socio-economic and cultural requirements. These functions can only be based on knowledge, enabled by new themes, such as wine production, and disseminated through new media, such as sports or film. Landscape is the key to the reading and cartography is the tool. With modern geographic information systems, each mapping process is associated with a database that indicates the value of each graphic element.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
