An Analysis of the Evaluation Difference on Shape Characteristics of Natural Landscape at National Park

This study evaluated 630 landscapes of Korea national park based on the shape characteristics of natural landscape. Using central government's database, 5 different shape characteristics of natural landscape(i.e., landscape form, exposure, skyline's continuity, plane shape, side gradient) and 9 variables of landscape evaluation(i.e., scarcity, visual beauty, visual harmony, viewing value, visual cognition, fragmentation pattern, education value, landscape diversity) were selected. Results of an analysis of variance indicated a partial difference in landscape evaluation among each of the five different characteristics of natural landscape. Overall, surface type, rock mountain type, continuos skyline type, steep side gradient type of natural landscape were evaluated better than their counter parts. The results of these could provide information for management strategies of national park's natural landscape.
