uncut low-traffic spaces (UZVR)

The uncirculated low-traffic spaces (UZVR) were calculated for Saxony for the first time using the method of the federal uniform indicator landscape cutting (LIKI/UMK indicator 10) developed by the Länder Initiative Core Indicators (LIKI/UMK indicator 10). The data are the result of the LfULG study on landscape cutting (https://publikationen.sachsen.de/bdb/artikel/13820). The following are considered as anthropogenic cutting elements with relevance for Saxony: Roads from a modeled traffic strength of 1000 vehicles/24 h (BAB, federal and state roads, district roads), two-track railway lines and single-track electrified, in operation, local locations, airports. For roads and railway lines, tunnels from 1 000 m in length are considered to be interrupted (“cutting”). All UZVRs are included from a minimum size of 40 km². The UZVRs are in the size classes: 40-70 km², 70-100 km² and 100 km² shown. Highlights are UZVR with particularly high nature conservation value for species and biotope protection as well as landscape-related recreation. They meet at least one of the following criteria: UZVR has a national park share, UZVR has a nature park share, UZVR has a biosphere reserve share, FFH share & 20 %, SPA share & 20 %, NSG share & 8 % or LSG share & 70 %.
