Abstract

Since 1980 GIS has been one of the most important instrument for the better structured representation of land. Its high potential in computing spatial information makes it the most suitable tool in land policies, particularly in those sectors aimed to sustainable development and whose information is specifically qualitative. Nowadays it’s widely used in Cadastre to integrate fiscal and civil uses. Land and agricultural policies can take advantage from the enlargement of this databank by combining spatial, qualitative and economic calculation into a unique appraisal/decisional pattern that uses an enhanced base of appraisal indices. Agriculture is one of the most fragile Italian and Sicilian economic sectors, and more than others it is exposed to the fluctuations of the financial economic crisis. Therefore it needs boosting policies in order to maintain the sustainability of land and firms, and to improve, by introducing innovation and efficiency, its capability to provide important investment options and relevant job opportunities. An agricultural policy aimed to sustainability must be argued in its entirety and the proposed model works on two layers: the first one includes the appraisal and the ranking of the single land units, the second provides a general evaluation of the different policies that can be implemented. The proposed model is applied to a large land area located in the southern part of the municipality of Piazza Armerina (EN). Some scenarios, each one representing a particular concern, have been compared by using specific indices of efficiency and effectiveness for each of them
