Structure of evaluation for perspective views centered on the axes in lagoon reclaimed lands in the coastal area of Lake Biwa

: In this study, the evaluation structure of a linearly symmetrical landscape that can be seen from the surrounding embankment of a reclaimed land in lagoon reclaimed lands clarified, and the influence of the landscape composition and the difference of the components on the evaluation of the landscape was clarified. Photos were taken at lagoon reclaimed lands, and the area of landscape components in the images was calculated. Next, we conducted a psychological evaluation experime nt using the SD method, and extracted the factors related to the evaluation of the landscape of lagoon reclaimed land by factor analysis. The relationship between the psychological evaluation and the landscape components was clarified. As a result, four factor ax es of comfort, impression, quietness, and change were shown, and the influence of comfort and impression on the attractiveness of the landscape was found to be large. In addition, the evaluation was affected by the characteristics specific to lagoon reclaimed land, such as the gradient of the axis elements and the symmetry of the landscape, as well as differences in landscape composition and components. It was also suggested that there may be a method to enhance the evaluation of the landscape even when it is modified.
