Landscape Planning 

TL;DR: Landscape perception research during the past two decades has responded to legislative mandates and landscape management, planning and design issues in a number of countries as discussed by the authors, and has also engaged the interests of individuals from a variety of disciplines and professions.

TL;DR: Kaplan, R., 1985. The analysis of perception via preference: a strategy for studying how the environment is experienced as mentioned in this paper, has been shown that the use of preference reactions to photographic material is a highly effective procedure for deriving salient perceptual categories.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report on two studies which compared scenic landscape perceptions of Yugoslavians, West Indians and Americans of several ethnic backgrounds and identify important differences among groups in the perception of landscapes with and without man-made structures.

TL;DR: Arthur, L.M., Daniel, T.C., and Boster, R. as discussed by the authors presented a synthesis and overview of techniques developed for evaluating the scenic beauty of natural resources, grouped into three categories: descriptive inventories, public evaluations, and economic analyses.

TL;DR: Shafer et al. as discussed by the authors proposed a regression model that predicts preference scores for black and white photographs of natural landscapes, which can be applied to individual and groups of landscape photographs; and theory development suggested by the model's terms are discussed.
