Trough the evaluation experiment using the video image

Abstract

In densely built up residential areas, a greening method is needed to be compact. The purposes of this research were to clarify how the difference of the planting type effects on the impression of the alley, and what kinds of other plant features effect on the impression. We conducted a video based questionnaire with items based on semantic different method and the impression of plants. The result showed that planting types did not make a difference in the effect of greening on the alley landscapes, and that green coverage rates and individual plant characteristics changed the evaluation of alleys.
