Integrated landscape research, some fundamental values and their application

Rok, strany: 1977, 209 - 225

To fid out whether landscape is something „material“ or nothing else but an imageis a superfluous discussion: landscape is both, material and image. Its material substance, in its three-dimensional disposition has been studied and mapped by geographers since a long time. This is a landscape- mapping based on content. But the real new challenge is the Identification and mapping ot landscape-physiognomy. We have tried a method aiming at the elaboration of two maps, a first map, looking downward to the landscape along a vertical axis, which allows us to characterize horizontal forms. A second map is then elaborated and based on ground-level observation in a horizontal direction, allowing the Identification and classification of profile and of vertical features in general. Finally some ideas are expressed on how one can proceed to landscape- -evaluation in view of its application to landscape-planning.
