Mobile technologies are significant for sustainability assessment processes in the bio-economy. The project which produced this paper was designed to examine those factors which needed to be included in the study of the significant and complex elements in order to analyse the environmental impact on the bio-economy within protected landscape areas. The study also focused on drawing conclusions on those areas which needed to change to preserve the sustainable development of the bio-economy. The methods used in the project included extracting features of protected landscape areas from the Google Earth map studying them and applying data collected to the specific protected areas. Much of the physical focus was centered on Vestiena, Latvia, its environment and significant physical features. The aim of this paper was to discuss a holistic approach to the analysis of an ecological footprint in the protected landscape areas. The outcomes of this paper were: (1) an analysis of the simulation model; (2) development of a mobile solution based on Google Earth services; (3) creation of a holistic benchmarking factors influencing sustainable development of protected landscape area. This paper also discussed the features included in the current lifecycle of landscape and regional development based on economic metric tools and their application to planning.
