Rationale

Moosach, a 38 Kilometers long river, is a tributary of the Isar river near Munich, Bavaria, Germany.

Moosach, as a main water area of Freising, has played a significant role in characterizing Freising’s landscape for centuries.

Recently, urbanization, climate change, population growth, and construction have negatively affected water systems.

As a result, study and analysis of the Moosach waterscape would be vital for the river and its influenced area such as environment, nature, society, economy, land use, and settlement.

Location and scope

Water as a natural system

Geomorphology, typologies and dynamics of water areas

The landscape of the Freising waterscape is defined by the hillside on the northern part of the area.

The southern part of the area is a valley. This in large part determines the way of waterflow in the area.

The Moosach is a part of the larger Danube watershed.

Flood risk is a rising threat in the waterscape of Freising. It is clearly visible the projections for a 100-year flood would risk a large part of build upon area.

This needs to be considered for the rest of the project.

The geomorphological story of the area is largely defined by the alps to the south and upstream to the Isar and Moosach.

The alps create sediments in the area of gravel and larger rocks. The direct influence of the Alps cannot be underestimated.

Water as a living space

All life on earth appeared from water, so it is not surprising that the river Moosach is home to a huge number of plants, animals and other species. And many of them are protected or even endangered.

For example, such as Hungarian gentian, Green shield-moss, Star Swertia for plants; Common Tern, Common Sandpiper, Little Ringed Plover for birds; Moor frog and Danube salmon.

All of them need habitats to live and protection. And this should be taken into account when planning the future landscape.

The number of the population is growing, as a result of which urbanization is expanding, which can negatively affect habitats and the quality of water.

Blue and Green Infrastructure

The blue and green infrastructure in the plan area is significant but fractured. The hillside to the north houses large forest areas with a great variety of species.

There are (extensive) grasslands in the valley and both are of significant proportions.

The Isar river is an extensive line in the landscape with large importance to other natural areas as a green corridor.

The Isar river was planted with alluvial forests for flood control and form a green infrastructure in the landscape.

The problem that arises is the fragmentation of these nature biotopes.

Large roads cut through ecological connections which makes both biotopes more prone to instability.

The grassland areas are located in the middle of intensive farmlands. As these two grasslands have a completely different need for nutrients, these two functions don’t work together.

Water as a cultural space

Land use and water

The most of the land of Freising region is covered by farmlands and fields. Munich airport also occupies a fairly large territory.

The forests are mainly concentrated along the Isar river and in the northwest of Freising. There is also a fairly well-developed transport network in the region, both with roads for cars and bicycles, as well as a railway.

Earlier in the past, Freising was a center of trade, but with the development of Munich, the city lost its central role.

Now the leading role in the region is occupied by farms and the food industry, and the presence of the Munich airport also plays a big role in the industrial load.

Water equals life, both for animals, plants, and for humans. It provides a huge amount of ecosystem services:

people use water in all areas of everyday life, for drinking, for washing, for cooking. People swim in the water, they go fishing, use water in enterprises and technologies.

With the development of industry, water was increasingly used in production. In order to plan a sustainable landscape in the future, it is necessary to develop ways to better purify water and limit pollution.

Even with increasing industrialization, it is necessary to maintain a balance between the desires and needs of man and nature.

Cultural and spatial typologies of water areas

From the study sections of Moosach, we can see that in the downtown area Moosach was shaped by retaining wall and hardscape. Including the existing of the building, road and plaza.

  • Section 1 show the hill side, forest and grass lawn beside Moosach. People use this pathway along Moosach for recreation activities. Especially, go for a walk and riding bicycle.
  • Section 2 show the section on the new development of Moosach. The riverbank become step for people to sit and enjoy. Café put table and chairs beside the river.
  • Section 3 show the limit area between building. Moosach in that area is about 3 m. wide. And on the right side the building was attached to the river.
  • Section 4 show a public park with step down to river. People can reach Moosach and enjoy the beauty of nature in the downtown area.
  • Section 5 show some pathway in the downtown which row of tree and nice atmosphere. Some part of Moosach was shaped by retaining wall and hardscape.

Sacred spaces and heritage

Since Freising is a very ancient city - 500 years older than Munich, there are quite a lot of protected places and architectural monuments in it, as well as in the surrounding area.

The leading role among them, of course, is occupied by churches and cathedrals.

The entire Freising center is also an object of historical heritage and protection.

There are also a lot protected forests in the area, for example Garchinger Heide and Oberdingermoos.

The following pictures show a time travel from the ice age to the present status.

The most important points were picked out, which show how the landscape around the Moosach has changed over time (by man) and which qualities we have lost in the process.

Visual appearance and landscape narrative

Most of the sketch show relationship between nature and urban area.

  • Sketch No 1 show the public park that close to a bridge. This bridge become focal point and view of the public park.
  • Sketch No 2 show the water gate. People try to control the river by some way.
  • Sketch No.3 show the Mooscach out of downtown area. The river surround by nature, tree and forest.


Water and People

Accessibility and usability

By using the cycling and hiking paths map and overlaying that with the existing river structure, we can draw conclusions to the accessibility of the river.

The Isar is especially well accessible for walking and cycling. People can get all the way up to the waterside.

The Moosach river, which is the most prominent part of this project is a completely different story, large parts of the river are not easily visible or accessible.

This is most prominent close to town. On the southwestern of side of Freising. Getting closer to Munich the cycling paths especially get denser and getting to see the Moosach river gets more probable.

The Amper, another river on the western side of the area is a very mixed result. Some parts are easily accessible but in the cut-out of this plan area the Amper is not easily usable or accessible.

Community Mapping

What is to be mapped here?

  • Social groups from within the community, for example the youth, kids, students, parents, the retired etc. Typically, these groups have specific needs, which you can also make explicit on the map. These people might not be organized in any way, but they are usually present in the context you are observing
  • Local stakeholder groups: these groups are organized in one or the other way. They only exist within the community context you are observing. For example: the local community center, local churches, local interest groups, the landowners, small businesses and retailers
  • External stakeholder groups are not necessarily present in the environment you are observing, but they may have strong stakes and interests. These can be local authorities, politicians, associations, care services etc.
  • For each group, you may identify their needs, objectives, power and capacities
  • You may also identify gaps and power conflicts
  • Please try to redepict these elements in an integrated way and in relation to your water landscape. What is the relationship between these groups? Are they close or distanced from each other? Who is more powerful? Which voices are hardly heard? Do they have any shared concerns?

Possible Futures

  • You can summarize your findings with a SWOT diagram and a DPSI(R) Model
  • Link back to the Sustainable Development Goals: Which goals are at risk?
  • What is your worst case scenario for this landscape?
  • What is your best case scenario for this landscape?
  • Present your scenarios in the form of a collage or sketch
  • Add text and visuals

Collaborative Goal Setting

  • Define strategic planning objectives based on the evaluation findings from your analysis
  • Ideally, involve the community of your living labs into this process
  • Link back to your original targets from section one and the Development Goals
  • 150 words text contribution

Spatial Strategy and Transect

  • translate your strategic goals into a vision
  • develop a spatial translation of your vision
  • exemplify your vision in the form of a transect with concrete interventions
  • add map(s) and visualizations

From Theory of Change to Implementation

  • For implementing your vision: Which partnerships are needed? Which governance model is required?
  • Who needs to act and how? Draw and explain a change/process model/timeline
  • Which resources are needed? On which assets can you build?
  • add 150 words text and visuals

References

  • give a full list of the references you have used for your case

Process Reflection

  • Reflect in your intercultural and interdisciplinary team on the outcomes of your study
  • Which limitations were you facing?
  • What have you learnt from each other?
  • What did you learn in the Living Labs?
  • What would you do differently next time?
  • You can also use diagrams/visuals
  • 250 words text
