Factors Affecting the Property To aid identification, analysis and response to the range of factors affecting World Heritage properties, a standardised list of these factors is provided. Revised Periodic Reporting questionnaires: Section I and Section II WHC-08/32.COM/ INF.11E, p. 23

25 Factors can occur inside the property, outside the property, or both inside and outside. They can be current or potential, and either negative or positive. 1. The first step is to assess whether or not the factor is relevant to your property. If it is not, check the box marked N/A (i.e. not applicable) and move on. 2. If factors are applicable then you will first be asked whether they are occurring inside or outside of the property (or both). 3. Once you have checked the box regarding occurrence, four additional options will appear. These allow you to indicate whether the factor is positive or negative and whether its effects are current or potential. Consider the example of visitor accommodation. If visitor accommodation inside your World Heritage property is small scale or well managed, it could have a positive effect on your property in terms of assisting in the presentation of World Heritage values; however, if it is very large scale and/or not well managed (either inside or outside the World Heritage property), then the same factor could have a negative impact on the property Buildings and Development The physical footprint in relatively localised areas including: Tourism facilities Recreation facilities Destruction of traditional buildings and other heritage; Modern construction Encroachment Deterioration/ loss of setting Note - use (3.2) below for transportation related visitor facilities Note - see (3.4) below for visual pollution caused by any of the above factors Housing Housing Commercial development Commercial development Industrial areas Revised Periodic Reporting questionnaires: Section I and Section II WHC-08/32.COM/ INF.11E, p. 24
