Talasani (French pronunciation: [talazani]) is a rural commune and village on the eastern seaboard of Corsica, in the Haute-Corse department of France. The area has a very low population density and mainly comprises forests and farmland. As a coastal municipality, Talasani enforces strict urban planning provisions in order to preserve the ecological balance of the coast.
Geography
[edit]Talasani is a village on the eastern coast of Corsica, part of the canton of Casinca-Fumalto. It was once part of the piève, or religious district, of Tavagna. Today, Talasani belongs to the Communauté de Communes de la Costa Verde of Costa Verde, a microregion north of the Plaine orientale.[3]
Town planning
[edit]Typology
[edit]Due to its low population density, Talasani is designated as a rural commune according to the municipal density grid of Insee.[note 1][4][5][6][7] It belongs to the urban unit of Penta-di-Casinca, an agglomeration comprising 7 communes and 9,501 inhabitants as of 2017.[8][9]
The commune is within the metropolitan area[note 2] of Bastia, which includes 93 communes and belongs to the category of urban areas with between 50,000 and 200,000 inhabitants.[10][11]
The municipality bordered by the Mediterranean Sea is also a coastal municipality within the meaning of the law of 3 January 1986, known as the coastal law.[12] Specific urban planning provisions therefore apply in order to preserve natural spaces, sites, landscapes and the ecological balance of the coast. For example, this limits building outside already urbanized spaces within 100 metres (330 ft) of the coastline, or more if specified by local zoning.[13][14]
Land use

According to the European database of biophysical land use, Corine Land Cover (CLC), Talasani's land use consists mostly of forests and semi-natural environments (75.5% in 2018). This proportion has changed very little since 1990 (75.4%). The detailed breakdown in 2018 is as follows: shrub and/or herbaceous vegetation (46.6%), forests (28.9%), heterogeneous agricultural areas (12.2%), urbanized areas (8.3%), permanent crops (3.9%), artificial green spaces, non-agricultural (0.1%), maritime waters (0.1%).[15]
IGN also provides an online tool to compare the evolution over time of land use in the municipality (or in territories at different scales). Maps or aerial photos are available depicting multiple eras: the Cassini map (eighteenth century), the staff map (1820-1866), and the current period (1950 to today).[16]
