Water and Land Recreation
Opportunity Spectrum (WALROS), stands out as a tool that guides the
institutions responsible for recreation planning and management in determining
recreation opportunities and making decisions on the sustainability of
recreation resources. This study aims to identify WALROS classes of the
Southern Sub-Basin of Ankara Province,
where the population density and urban sprawl put pressure on the natural and
rural resources in the urban fringe and there is a day by day growing demand
for recreation use. In this context, the basin is evaluated based on land surveys and the CORINE 2012 land
use/land cover features by
the expert group of four landscape architects under the WALROS classifications according to
physical, social and managerial parameters. In order to identify WALROS
classes; data collection, preparing the specified setting parameters for
analysis, analysis, classification, weighting and overlay operations have been
implemented in ArcGIS10.2. As a result, the basin is determined under the
classifications of developed-rural, urban and sub-urban in terms of physical
setting parameters. In general, the basin also determined as natural-rural and
developed-rural based on social setting features and primitive based on
managerial features. After overlaid by weighting of each parameter,
semi-primitive class is ranked as the first in terms of areal size, natural-rural class is
the second and primitive class ranked as the third in the basin. Consequently, the basin has the
potential to respond to different recreation needs and experience demands with
different recreation ambient properties and facilities which vary from
primitive to urban. For the sustainability of
the area’s recreation opportunities, primitive, semi-primitive and
natural-rural class areas must be protected. Accordingly, limiting visitor
intensity in existing recreational areas and instead of urban characterized
recreational activities, ecotourism, rural tourism or nature conservation
activities need to be encouraged in the
South Sub-Basin of Ankara Province.
