Landscape Ecology Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The relation between landscape and recreation is very complex. There are various, interrelated approaches to analyze this relation, such as land evaluation, impact analysis, spatial behaviour analysis, and assessment of the scenic quality of the landscape or landscape evaluation. In many of these approaches airphoto interpretation can be a useful tool.
