Different kinds of approach to landscape configuration analysis were applied to a benchmark landuse/land cover map. A pre-evaluation landscape pattern analysis (LPA), a morphological spatial pattern analysis (MSPA) a landscape mosaic analysis and a landscape variation analysis, were carried out. These analyses provide a site and scale specific composite set of indices which can be used as a change biodiversity indicator set with reference to the CBDSEBI focal areas: status and trends of the components of biological diversity, Ecosystem integrity, and ecosystem goods and services.

Abstract
Different kinds of approach to landscape configuration analysis were applied to a benchmark landuse/land cover map. A pre-evaluation landscape pattern analysis (LPA), a morphological spatial pattern analysis (MSPA) a landscape mosaic analysis and a landscape variation analysis, were carried out. These analyses provide a site and scale specific composite set of indices which can be used as a change biodiversity indicator set with reference to the CBDSEBI focal areas: status and trends of the components of biological diversity, Ecosystem integrity, and ecosystem goods and services.
