景观视觉特征的分类是景观研究者交流和比较研究的一个参照系。然而,分类是困难的,因为景观的复杂性,因为它必须是明确的。地理信息系统和国家数字数据库可用于对景观的重要特征进行分类,新西兰南岛的一个样带说明了这一点。一个自动化的分类过程,结合景观的组合和广义的性质。使地理信息系统能够对景观进行分类的一个重要分析功能是焦点邻域功能。这实际上是从数千个不同的点分析研究区域,并考虑每个点周围的邻域。使用一套具体的景观分类标准和更一般的分类标准的有效性进行评估。一旦分类开发完成.
Abstract The classification of visual landscape character is needed in order for landscape researchers to have a frame of reference for communicating and comparing their research. Yet, classification is difficult because of the complex nature of landscapes and because it must be explicit. GIS and national digital databases can be used to classify the important characteristics of landscapes and this is illustrated on a transect of the South Island of New Zealand. An automated classification process that incorporates the combination and generalized nature of landscapes is described. An important analysis function that enables GIS to classify landscapes is the focal neighbourhood function. This, in effect, analyses the study area from thousands of different points and considers the neighbourhood surrounding each point. The validity of the resulting classification is assessed using a set of specific landscape classification criteria and more general classification criteria. Once a classification has been deve...
