Abstract:

Remote sensing is a key technology used in landscape quality assessment of scenic forests. This paper described the significance of landscape quality assessment and development process of landscape quality assessment of scenic forests. Applications of remote sensing in landscape pattern and dynamic, visualization and computerized management of scenic forests were also summarized, with an emphasis on elaboration of the mechanism of using remote sensing technology to assess scenic forest landscape quality. Ultimately, the theoretical and methodological problems in using remote sensing to extract and assess landscape information were analyzed, and the future applications of remote sensing technology in the quality evaluation of the scenic forest landscape are prospected.

Key words: scenic forest, landscape quality assessment, remote sensing
