Methods for measuring perceived qualities in the landscape

This project delves into methods for measuring perceived qualities in landscapes, transitioning from quantitative to qualitative research. Drawing from various studies and theories, the aim is to explore different paradigms of landscape perception, with a focus on socio-cultural effects. The discussion emphasizes the importance of embracing an interdisciplinary science approach to identify and communicate intangible values. Contact Sofia Jönsson or Marianne Lindström for more information.

Swaffield & Foster argues: this approach has high credability on common preferences and is to prefer when conducting policies and guidelines in authority activities.

  7. Important to focus on a more qualitative approach in landscape perception reserach: identifying intangible values and embracing interdisciplinary science.

  8. Communicate soft values • Additional step in landscape perception research • Landscape values institute, Australia. Public Participation Geographic Information System (PPGIS)
