Urban visual landscapes refer not only to the physical manifestations of various material forms composed of urban physical environments and urban life but also to the overall comprehensive perception dominated by vision. Evaluating urban landscapes visually essentially involves judging the value of urban physical environments at the visual level. Only when value orientations align can consensus be reached in landscape evaluation. After discussing value orientations and value standards, the book explores the methods of urban landscape visual evaluation and systematically elaborates on the theoretical foundations, basic methods, and advantages and disadvantages of different evaluation models. The book also delves into the subjective perception of urban visual landscapes and the methods for describing objective visual scenes. It is suitable for personnel engaged in urban landscape construction and urban planning management, as well as designers involved in urban planning, urban design, and landscape design, and theoretical researchers in higher education institutions.
