The analysis and creation of landscape aesthetic value network models as important elements of sustainable urban development

Abstract

Landscape potential management is a very important aspect of sustainability development of the urbanized area. The knowledge of the city landscape value and correct management of the potential that landscape has, helps to optimize activities in land management and to keep spatial order. Studies which are described in this article include creation and comparative analysis of two landscape aesthetic value network models: a network model of landscape value generated according to the way of minimal increase of landscape value and the one generated according to the way of the minimal fall of landscape value. Those activities should lead to creating a method for constructing a network model of landscape value of urbanized area. This method can be applied as a basic for optimizing the organization of space planning and landscape management.
