“…In the last two decades, map-based tools have become particularly widespread, as they are very well suited to collecting and processing input from local communities that can be easily translated into planning information (McCall, 2021;Gottwald et al, 2021). Notwithstanding these developments, the integration of local heritage perceptions into the heritage and spatial planning fields is still not nearly common enough in practice (Ryan, 2011;Gottwald et al, 2021;Spanu et al, 2017;Grasseni, 2012;Torquati et al, 2011;Garcia-Martin et al, 2017;Nikula et al, 2020). This paper aims to test the effectiveness of a map-based online questionnaire tool in revealing local heritage perceptions and integrating them into the planning practice.…”

Local perceptions in the definition of cultural landscapes have been on the radar of the scientific community for a long time, but very few studies have focused on integrating this information into heritage and planning practices. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate, with a practical example, how to do so through a Public Participation GIS (PPGIS) application. In this study, a landscape approach and participatory mapping framework were tailored to a case study area in the south of Italy, where an online map-based survey was shared with the public. The survey results illustrate how the application effectively brought to the fore local heritage perceptions as relevant sources for future potential spatial planning strategies.
