Motives: The article combines the problems of Polish agriculture in terms of its fragmentation and its negative impact on the environment. Aim: The article’s purpose is to characterise the relationship between the widely promoted land consolidation and the number of organic farms. Results: The statistical analysis was performed on the basis of data published by the Polish Central Statistical Office and Eurostat. The basic measures of descriptive statistics, the Pearson correlation coefficient and the log-linear form regression for the share of organic farms in the general structure were used. The article proposes a synthetic index of agricultural fragmentation. Based on the analyses, it was found that there is a statistically significant relationship between land consolidation (both in the EU and in Poland) and the number of organic farms.

The purpose of the research is to check whether it is possible to encumbrance lands covered with flowing surface water in favor of a transmission networks operator (hereinafter: transmission undertaking) by way of a transmission easement. The term ‘flowing surface water’ includes rivers and flowing lakes, which according to the Central Statistical Office occupy around 2% of Poland’s land area. These waters are located in both urban and rural areas, and the transmission infrastructure facilities involved may be constructed below ground, on the ground or in the air space above the ground. This applies to the transmission of all public utilities including but not limited to water, gas, electricity and telecommunications. The transmission undertaking should seek to acquire the right to the land to install the facilities. This article attempts to address the question of whether the land covered by flowing surface water constitutes a specific type of land which might in some way affect the possibility of establishing a transmission easement.

Motives: As the number of research studies of people in urban areas grows in terms of the criteria impacting the health and effectiveness of individuals, the detrimental effects caused by living apart from natural elements become more visible. There is inadequate data for a program that integrates both biophilic design and smart cities tactics. Smart city concerned about energy and resource utilization and utilize digital technologies to adjust resource consumption. It seldom discusses environmental sustainability. However, the biophilic design seeks to provide people with better life quality through a functional interconnection with nature. Digital expertise may prompt biophilic retorts via simulated methods. Aim: The study reconnoiters the significance of the biophilic ideologies to the city’s development. It integrates biophilic urban design in Neom city to overcome gaps in ecosystems’ health associated with traditional urban design. Result: The study proposes integrating biophilic elements at small and large scales. It explains each element within proposed projects and examples of Neom city’s design schemes to incubate these elements.

Climate change and human activity are the main threats to rural areas and surrounding cities. The effects of climate change are mainly an increasing temperature, but also the intensity and frequency of extreme events. Climate change and its consequences are a growing problem. One of the ways to mitigate climate change, improve the quality of the natural environment and meet international obligations is sustainable energy management and the use of renewable energy sources (the RES). The aim of the study was to evaluate the energy economy, in particular the use of the RES in the Żywiec district in 2015–2020. In the rural areas of the Żywiec district, the preferred RES are solar energy (for all communities), energy from biomass and biogas from agricultural biogas plants. It has been assumed that the increase in the use of renewable energy (in this case PV installations) in the areas in question was mainly caused by the economic incentives. After the initial period (2015–2018) of lack of interest, there was a significant increase in the number of RES installations installed. PV installations prevailed. After the analysis, it seems that the increase in interest and installation of PV installations was mainly due to attractive, local subsidy programs, which significantly improved operational efficiency and shortened the payback time on investments in photovoltaic micro-installations. The adopted hypothesis was confirmed.

Motives: The main thesis of this article is that the experience of the Polish path of development of the real estate market and the real estate valuation system can serve as useful guidance for Vietnam. Aim: The aim of this article is to present in a historical context the changes that have taken place in the approach to real estate value and the regulations governing the real estate market and valuation in Poland. The rationale for this aim is that Poland has already come a long way on the path of political transformation, while Vietnam is at an earlier stage of this path. Therefore, it can benefit from the Polish experience. Results: The result is a set of information that can be turned into guidance by relevant institutions operating in Vietnam.

During the land reform, which has been going on in Ukraine since 1991, the state form of land ownership has been demonopolized. The lands of almost 12,000 farms have been reformed, and 6.77 million peasants have acquired land rights (shares), the vast majority of which are registered as separate plots of land. Today, land consolidation should be considered as a set of land management measures to regulate the structure of land rights in order to create more favorable conditions for farming, increase productivity, reduce production costs, create appropriate infrastructure, improve the agricultural structure. The current land legislation of Ukraine does not contain a sufficiently effective mechanism for ensuring land consolidation and needs to be improved. The purpose of the study is to identify ways to improve the mechanism of legal regulation of land consolidation in Ukraine and integrated land management, which will provide restructuring and improvement of spatial conditions of agriculture, achieving more efficient multifunctional use of rural areas, environmental protection and infrastructure development for further harmonization of legislation.

Motives: IT is nowadays an effective tool supporting management in many fields, including management of urban greenery. Only a few cities in Poland have launched a dedicated urban greenery management system (UGMS). The need to provide all cities in the country with such a possibility gave birth to the idea of developing a concept using existing Land Administration System (LAS) infrastructure connected with INSPIRE Geoportal which can provide more than 75% of the information for urban greenery management.Aim: The main aim of this study was to propose the functional and database concept of a fit-forpurpose urban greenery management system (UGMS) in Poland as a universal tool for different types of urban greenery management bodies (UGMB) and a consistent information platform covering the entire country based on LAS referred to as the Integrated Real Estate Information System (IREIS), and the INSPIRE Geoportal service. The UGMS concept can be implemented in the other Member States of the European Union and other countries that have LAS and SDI like INSPIRE.Results: This approach develops a cost-effective information system that contains comprehensive information from the existing SDI in Poland and can be used by all Polish cities. The system will provide UGMB with access to data that is required for the performance of their statutory duties. Previous accomplishments, EU recommendations, and national experiences in spatial planning have been taken into account in the design process. In line with the fit-for-purpose concept, the relevant needs were determined during a survey of selected public administration authorities responsible for urban greenery. As a result, the scope of data required to create the UGMS was defined in the context of system functionalities. In addition, potential sources of data for the UMGS and their location in the NSDI were identified.

Motives: Tourism is one of the most affected industries by the COVID-19 pandemic. The restrictions introduced by the Polish government, dictated by the rapidly increasing number of positive cases in the country, led to severe restrictions or complete cessation of the accommodation, catering and tourist services. These restrictions resulted in greater interest in the “little homeland” tourist offer, the dispersion of tourist traffic and the development of so called “grey zone” through unofficial functioning of accommodation facilities.Aim: The purpose of this paper is to characterize the profile of tourists who paid for the accommodation services in Poland during the second wave of the pandemic, lasting from 7th November 2020 to 11th February 2021. The research methodology included a diagnostic survey conducted through the use of a digital questionnaire circulated in social media. In total 100 responses were subjected to qualitative analysis. On the basis of the obtained results, the authors analyzed the following criteria: the number, time, place, length and method of organization of trips; type of accommodation with the costs estimate and the method of obtaining information about the functioning of the chosen facility; means of transportation to the destination, main and secondary travel motives. The study also presents the changes declared by the respondents in the frequency of organizing a one-day trip and several-day-long trips away from the place of their daily residence, as well as the assessment of the quality of the services provided against the price.Results: Almost 70% of the respondents paid for the accommodation services in the given time frame at least once, mainly booking private lodging using Booking.com portal. The organized trips were usually short-term and lasted 3 days. Only every 5th trip was planned in advance, before the restrictions were introduced. The main motive for the trip was the desire to change the environment,understood as escaping the city and relaxing outdoors. The vast majority of respondents did not suffer from COVID-19 before the trip, and every fourth respondent considered the applicable restrictions as too severe.

Motives: Societies have developed a variety of services to meet their basic needs. One of them is to deposit and commemorate the bodies of the dead, for which cemeteries are used. Cemeteries and cities are thus interlinked.Aim: The first aim of the study was to verify whether cemeteries located in secondary cities with a high synthetic measure of socioeconomic development and with sustainable spatial policy on cemetery greenery are more attractive. Second aim was to verify whether attractiveness of cemeteries is related to their age. The study was conducted on a sample of 96 cemeteries located within the administrative boundaries of 10 cities of population between 50 000 and 300 000 inhabitants within city limits, that were representing various NUTS1 regions. Criteria of the cemetery evaluation based on the features of the cemetery were elaborated in terms of location, accessibility and development of the necropolis. Moreover, analysis of the current socioeconomic situation of cities was carried out.Results: Finally, the mutual correlation of indicators was examined using the Spearman correlation coefficient. The relationship between the cemeteries features, the socioeconomic development, share of municipal cemeteries as well elements considered in study of spatial policy on cemetery greenery in non-metropolitan cities has been noticed. As the result of performed analysis the guidelines on how to increase the attractiveness of cemeteries in non-metropolitan cities were developed.

Motives: The term “housing quality” is very complex and refers to all qualitative aspects of housing. In this context, the present study based on an extensive analysis of the literature that addresses various aspects of housing quality (monographs, landmark publications, international reports, methodological guides, normative and legislative acts, and statistical data) was developed. The particular case of the housing quality in the Republic of Moldova consists in the degree of comfort that the population benefits from the level of localities’ utility infrastructure.Aim: The study aims to provide an overview of the housing quality in the Republic of Moldova at national, regional, and local levels. Therefore, the main factors which influence the territorial distribution of structural indicators and their outstanding effects in the researched area were analysed.Results: The research results showed that the quality of housing in the Republic of Moldova depends on technical and economic development, thus major discrepancies between different categories of Administrative Territorial Units and Development Regions are registered.
