The Transect method is suitable for both urban and rural contexts, and especially for water landscapes along rivers or coasts. It is appropriate for scientific landscape analysis and design development, combined with other methods such as mapping, behaviour mapping or interviews respectively story-telling. It is an easy method for practical participatory approaches: Walking along the transect with stakeholders and citizens to discuss issues can generate cocreative knowledge and help to discover local problems and potentials together.

	"''A transect, in its origins (Von Humboldt 1790), is a geographical cross-section of a region used to reveal a sequence of environments. Originally, it was used to analyze natural ecologies, showing varying characteristics through different zones such as shores, wetlands, plains, and uplands. For human environments, such a cross-section can be used to identify a set of habitats that vary by their level and intensity of urban character, a continuum that ranges from rural to urban. In Transect planning, this range of environments is the basis for organizing the components of urbanization: building, lot, land use, street, and all of the other physical elements of the human habitat.''"
