GIS-based landscape design research | Visual landscape research | Field instruments for design
Visual landscape research is an interdisciplinary approach that combines (a) landscape planning, design and management
concepts, (b) landscape perception
approaches, and (c) Geographic
Information Science (GISc)-based methods and techniques. While integrating psychological
knowledge of landscape perception, the technical considerations of geomatics,
and methodology of landscape architecture and urban planning, it provides a solid
basis for visual landscape assessment in cities, parks and rural areas. Read more...
This research focuses on the use of field instruments in landscape architecture. 3D Terrestrial laser scanning, point cloud technology, drones, eye tracking devices and other instruments are employed for advanced analysis for design. True-colour 3D laser scan Rosendael Park and Castle (Rozendaal, Netherlands). See more…
