In the framework of the project, a platform for assessing the impact of a motorway on agricultural land has been developed, in the form of a computer application, which, after inputting data from a map with the marked course of the linear investment, allows to calculate and present total losses related to its negative impact on agricultural land. This allows for a quick assessment of variants of the linear investment course and selection of the most beneficial variant from the perspective of its impact on agricultural land. An indirect effect is the possibility of optimizing the placement of motorway viaducts, railway viaducts, etc. At present, in order to assess the impact of a 2.8 km section with the use of previous methods, it is estimated that it takes about 50 hours of work, while the method presented shortens the assessment process to a maximum of 30 minutes. Furthermore, visualisation tools have been developed that make it possible to place a motorway in space and, apart from assessing its negative impact on agricultural land, also estimate the aesthetic aspect connected with disturbing the space with this construction, which allows for a rough assessment of the aesthetic values in a given landscape. Using the developed method, it is possible to quickly and precisely select the most beneficial variant of the motorway route.
