The Visual Preference Analysis Study of Baekdudaegan Forest Landscape

The purpose of this study is to find alternatives for improving the visual resource of forest resources and the landscape value in terms of public interest of forests through the analysis of visual preference of forest landscapes targeting Baekdudaegan forest resources. The research methods consist of theoretical consideration and presentation of an analysis framework, a visual preference survey for improving forest landscapes, and suggestions for improvement alternatives through this. The visual preference survey selected a sample group consisting of 50 landscape experts and used the SD scale technique using landscape adjectives. Then, the final preference model was presented through factor analysis and regression analysis. The implications of this study are that the selection of viewpoints and analysis of visual preferences in forest landscapes are meaningful results in terms of providing high ecosystem services through visual resource utilization of forest landscapes in terms of wise use of forest landscapes. In addition, it is judged to be significant as a basic research and reference frame when conducting in-depth research in terms of increasing the usability and efficient management of forest landscapes in the future.
