“…Residents' perceptions of their living environments form a unique value within rural landscapes [15], a value that is region-specific visual relationships between people and landscapes. Archaeological landscape research aims to explore the human-environment interactions [16], model site locations, evaluate site functions [17,18], and explore the evolution of archaeological landscapes [19]. In archaeological GIS research, human visibility is still a focus topic [20].…”

Scientifically validating the value of rural heritage and exploring construction wisdom has emerged as a significant challenge in the study of rural settlements worldwide. Rural heritage shows significant differences according to the natural environment, history, culture, and socio-economic factors. However, the assessment of the authenticity and effectiveness of heritage values have yet to be quantified due to the difficulty in obtaining evidence directly from samples. By constructing a multi-dimensional model of villages for quantitative analysis, we proposed a multifaceted spatial visibility analysis method based on individual and combined defense structures to empirically study the remains of eight towers in Moluo village, western China. This study demonstrated that towers serve as regional defense structures and are essential for constructing a comprehensive and effective visual defensive system (VDS) in Moluo village, a typical military defense village. The effectiveness and coverage of the towers vary depending on their location, height, type, and other factors. They form a complementary and synergistic relationship, playing a dual mechanism of public and private, local and overall defense. In summary, this method enables the feasible quantification and analysis of the functional value of rural heritage through landscape visual analysis. It provides a new perspective for studying the authenticity of heritage functions.

“…In change detection studies, multispectral data is employed to analyze and identify alterations in the landscape or environment over time. It enables to detect and understand changes in land cover, vegetation, or other features by comparing different spectral signatures recorded in multiple bands of the spectrum [12] , [13] , [14] .…”
