ANALYSIS OF GLOBAL PRACTICES FOR EFFECTIVE LAND DEVELOPMENT BASED ON SPATIAL AND LANDSCAPE LAND PLANNING

Abstract

The theoretical basis of the article was formed on the basis of a review of widely distributed and authoritative literature on the world experience of effective development of territories based on spatial landscape planning. In international practice, landscape planning is considered as the most important tool aimed at observing the principles of sustainable development, protecting nature and maintaining ecological balance. In the Republic of Kazakhstan, despite the availability of such methods of territorial planning as the General Scheme of organization of the territory, Schemes of territorial development of regions, Comprehensive plans of socio-economic development, General plans of settlements and projects of detailed planning (RAP), the system of landscape planning focused on environmental protection and rational use of natural resources, still it is not developed enough. The purpose of this study is to provide recommendations on landscape planning, rational use and protection of natural resources of the North Kazakhstan region, taking into account its unique characteristics: natural wealth, low population density and its decline. The practices of land management in the USA, China and Germany were considered as examples. The study used specific methods of data collection and analysis, including content analysis and comparative analysis. The sources of information were international and national scientific databases such as Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar and ScienceDirect, as well as legislative acts of the Republic of Kazakhstan and Kazakhstani scientific journals in the field of land management and cadastre. As a result, the best practices of the USA, Germany and China were identified and proposed for further study, which can be adapted for spatial and landscape planning of the territory of the North Kazakhstan region.
