This work aims at providing a deeper understanding of the main determinants of land use in Italy by using a large dataset drawn from official sources for 2016 (ISTAT, ISPRA, SIEPI). The analysis is carried out at the municipal level (n= 7,798), corresponding to the NUTS-4/LUA level of the Eurostat classification, because in Italy each municipality is the main decision-maker of territorial planning strategies and tools. Moreover, as land use activities impact the environment with inevitable relationships between local agents, the analysis also investigates the effects of local neighbouring factors on land use decision-makers, as well as spatial interactions among local agents distributed in space.

Abstract
This work aims at providing a deeper understanding of the main determinants of land use in Italy by using a large dataset drawn from official sources for 2016 (ISTAT, ISPRA, SIEPI). The analysis is carried out at the municipal level (n= 7,798), corresponding to the NUTS-4/LUA level of the Eurostat classification, because in Italy each municipality is the main decision-maker of territorial planning strategies and tools. Moreover, as land use activities impact the environment with inevitable relationships between local agents, the analysis also investigates the effects of local neighbouring factors on land use decision-makers, as well as spatial interactions among local agents distributed in space.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
