The Influence of Different Evaluation Media on the Aesthetic Evaluation of Urban Parks

Abstract

In the aesthetic evaluation of landscape under laboratory conditions, photographs or slides are the main type of evaluation media, and the research done by relying on this evaluation media has produced many meaningful aesthetic evaluation theories, but with the progress and development of technology, many new evaluation media have been used and studied, such as panoramic photography and virtual reality, which have improved and developed the traditional aesthetic evaluation theories. This paper takes Jinan city park in China as the landscape aesthetic evaluation object, and obtains different types of landscape evaluation media by shooting, which are four ways: Audio-only, Image-only, Video-only, Audio-video, and uses these four media ways to evaluate the park landscape and analyze the data to explore the influence of different media ways on the landscape evaluation results, in order to get the evaluation results closer to the real environment under the psychological state. The following conclusions were obtained: (1) Different evaluation media methods will have an impact on the aesthetic evaluation of urban park landscape, and the degree of impact depends on the sound and dynamic elements in the environment. (2) Sound landscapes have a superimposed effect on the aesthetic evaluation of urban park landscapes, with good natural sound and artificial noise enhancing and reducing visual evaluation scores respectively. (3) There are significant gender differences in the aesthetic evaluation of landscapes containing sound, which in turn affects the aesthetic evaluation of landscapes.
