摘要：

In Britain there has been a renewed interest in landscape evaluation as overcapacity in agriculture is beginning to free land for other uses. Comparison of systems of landscape classification with more direct scenic assessment of the same landscapes has been made in an agricultural study area in the lowlands of SE England. Classification methodologies produced recognizable landscape groupings which can then be evaluated using scenic or other criteria such as landscape rarity or extent. The greater objectivity of this approach compared with direct scenic evaluation may be important in determining the boundaries of designated areas where farmers are now being paid to farm in ways designed to maintain wildlife, access and the character of the landscape. © 1991.
