As part of the transformation and qualifying processes of cities and territories, considering the challenges posed by climate change and the ecological transition in progress, the need to define new methods for sustainable urban planning capable of analyzing, evaluating, and managing the complex relationship between urban growth and greening processes to guarantee adequate levels of urban liveability and sustainability has emerged in an increasingly evident way. The thesis deals with the complex relationship between urban growth and urban greening processes. Precisely, after the analysis of the state-of-the-art on the topics of urban growth, compact and dispersed, and greening processes, such as urban green areas, ecosystem services, and nature-based solutions, and the innovative methods and tools employed in urban planning to pursue this purpose, an innovative methodological approach based on innovative information technologies, such as artificial intelligence models and remote sensing techniques, and advanced geospatial analysis techniques, also shared via the web, for assessing and managing urban growth and greening processes is defined. The proposed methodological approach is applied to specific case studies, demonstrating that planners can employ this approach to make informed decisions regarding evaluating and managing urban growth and greening processes to make these processes truly sustainable. The analyses and experiments led within the thesis bring out the need for flexible, innovative, and integrated urban planning approaches that appropriately direct the urban and territorial planning decision-making processes for achieving sustainable and liveable development.
Resilienza e rischio nella rilettura urbanistica dell'emergenza. Il ruolo della viabilità strategica

Urban systems are increasingly experiencing processes of evolution, change and transition. Therefore, there is an urgent need of identifying new planning approaches aimed at promptly responding to them. Over the years, the themes of risk and security have, more or less sponta-neously, contributed to direct the ways of governing the territories. However, the most recent crises have shown how many critical issues have remained unresolved. In this respect, new challenges have to be faced, especially in terms of emergency planning. Starting from a theoretical reflection on the current planning orientation and on the concept of urban resilience, this research tries to use a novel meth-odological approach with a view to provide a new characterisation to Emer-gency Plans, more spatial and not just operational. Following the need to identify some categories of relevant urban elements on the territory, the proposed performance-based framework offers a formal procedure for the detection of strategic road infrastructures. The obtained results allow to plan already in “peacetime” the best alternative routes to ar-rive safely in the areas established by Civil Protection in case of event and to facilitate rescue operations. Therefore, the analysis of the physical and functional relationships among different elements of the territory shifts the focus of emergency from a piece-meal approach to a more integrated one. This will be capable of addressing more consistently the future decisions concerning the urban structures, typi-cal of ordinary territorial planning.
