The contribution aims to review some of the monitoring approaches in soil/land consumption available in Italy. The first part introduces the judicial framework, the theoretical and practical approach to the definitions of soil protection and soil/land consumption. The second part focuses on indicators and monitoring soil/land consumption, briefly presenting some experiences ongoing in Italy, and critically highlighting their potential and their limits in the pursuit of limiting soil/land consumption. The last part provides suggestions about exploring the potential of using specific indicators in Strategic Environmental Assessment of urban and territorial planning, such as evaluating the baseline scenario, assessing alternatives and monitoring.
