Abstract

Rural landscape is an advancing research area of landscape science and planning.Landscape classification and evaluation are not only the basis for landscape structure and functions but also the prerequisite for landscape planning and design.Taking Wuchuanhu Village of Changsha County as an example,the landscapes were classified and mapped.Qualitative and quantitative methods were used to evaluate the rural landscape.The results showed that Wuchuanhu Village was classified into 10 landscape units of three landscape types.Artificial waters landscape had the best degree of exotic beauty;natural forest landscape had the best diversity of landscape;and farmland landscape had the highest accessibility.They should be developed approximately in addition to protection.However,road landscape,residential landscape and engineering landscape should be remedied.
