چکیده
|
The impact of landscape on the urban environment is substantiated in a variety of literature and applications. although landscape has a vital role in urban fabrics,it can also negatively affect the contextual environment. taking into consideration that the classification of landscape aspects is diverse helps in better understanding for . landscape settings. this diversification is attributed to the complexity of the various facets of landscape design. thus,there is a need for organizing landscape features data,highlighting their bearing on the performance and quality of landscape design. in addition to the mutual effect of these features on each other based on their contextual relationships. this paper aims to appropriate landscape metrics as a tool for ensuring settings1 quality using geographic information systems as a moderator 'for metrics generation. this is achieved through discussing landscape setting as a system,complexity of databases,and the concept of landscape metrics. this will lead to introducing a framework for landscape metrics formulation for a better understanding and classification of landscape design inputs and outputs.
