This research proposes a methodology for defining greenways via sustainable planning. This approach includes the analysis and discussion of culture and natural processes that occur in the landscape. The proposed methodology is structured in three phases: eco-cultural analysis; synthesis and diagnosis; and proposal. An interdisciplinary approach provides an assessment of the relationships between landscape structure and landscape dynamics, which are essential to any landscape management or land use. The landscape eco-cultural analysis provides a biophysical, dynamic (geomorphologic rate), vegetation (habitats from directive 92/43/EEC) and cultural characterisation. The knowledge obtained by this analysis then supports the definition of priority actions to stabilise the landscape and the management measures for the habitats. After the analysis and diagnosis phases, a proposal for the development of sustainable greenways can be achieved. This methodology was applied to a study area of the Azambuja Municipality in the Lisbon Metropolitan Area (Portugal). The application of the proposed methodology to the study area shows that landscape stability is crucial for greenway users in order to appreciate the landscape and its natural and cultural elements in a sustainable and healthy way, both by cycling or by foot. A balanced landscape will increase the value of greenways and in return, they can develop socio-economic activities with benefits for rural communities.
本研究提出了一种通过可持续规划来定义绿道的方法。该方法包括对景观中发生的文化和自然过程进行分析和讨论。所提出的方法学分为三个阶段：生态文化分析、综合与诊断、以及建议。跨学科方法提供了对景观结构与景观动态之间关系的评估，这对任何景观管理或土地利用都是至关重要的。景观生态文化分析提供了一个对物理、动态（地貌速度）、植被（指令 92/43/EEC 的生境）和文化特征的描述。通过该分析获得的知识支持了确定稳定景观和管理生境的优先行动的定义。在分析和诊断阶段之后，可以提出可持续绿道的发展建议。该方法学已应用于里斯本大都市区阿赞布贾市（葡萄牙）的一个研究区域。将所提出的方法学应用于研究区域表明，景观稳定性对于绿道使用者至关重要，以便以可持续和健康的方式欣赏景观及其自然和文化元素，无论是骑自行车还是步行。平衡的景观将提高绿道的价值，反过来，它们可以开展具有农村社区利益的社会经济活动。
