“…Among the various services that have a pronounced spatial aspect and for which there are also concise instruments for assessment, cultural services are poorly integrated into the measurable landscape value framework and often characterised as "intangible" and "subjective" (Casado-Arzuaga et al 2014). In the complex process of perception of the landscape, both by locals or visitors, it has been concluded that areas with a significant number of interconnected elements that are carriers of naturalness are recognised as desirable, and are thus valued more highly (Daniel 2001, Lee et al 2008. Although some studies identify recreation as a threat to the vitality of the ecosystem, properly planned and managed recreation can help provide a better understanding of ecological values in the area where recreation can become one of the instruments of conservation of valuable habitats (Dolnicar et al 2008).…”

The beginning of the 21 st century has witnessed a growth in our understanding of the importance of planning urban landscapes in the context of urban population growth and unpredictable climatic conditions. In the search for responses to the challenges set by the development of contemporary urban landscapes, researchers have offered solutions based on the concept of sustainable and resilient cities, whose spatial development would be based on an interdisciplinary approach to strategy development: biodiversity, urban ecological networks and connectivity, multifunctionality and modularity. Although the concepts of a green infrastructure, in their spatial and functional dimensions, allow the application of such strategies, there are still problems when it comes to implementation and measuring the results achieved. At the same time, there is a growing discussion of the important role played by urban forestry in the context of the collaborative planning of urban landscapes and the application of the ideas of a green infrastructure. The key question is: what are the modalities of application of the concept of green infrastructure in the process of planning the development of the modern city and how can the resulting benefits be evaluated? With the modalities of application of the concept of green infrastructure in mind, we discuss its multi-scale and multifunctional dimensions as applied in the case of Serbia. The realisation of the green infrastructure concept is presented through the example of the Urban Forest Management Plan for the City of Belgrade -Mladenovac Municipality. The results of using the spatial-ecological approach in creating the plan and establishing connectivity as a new aim in forest management planning show that the implementation of the green infrastructure concept, and the achieved multifunctional ecosystem values, can be presented on the basis of the parameters of landscape metrics. In light of the new urban world, future research should focus on the application of the landscape ecological approach of the green infrastructure concept in collaborative planning at the urban landscape scale, which allows the creation of ecosystem services and benefits to human wellbeing.

“…Ferrarini et al, 2008;Snyder et al, 2008;Tomczyk and Ewertowski, 2013a;Xiang, 1996). These models can be also extended to incorporate knowledge of local stakeholders, for example by use of the results of map-based interviews (Austin et al, 2009;Irvine et al, 2009) or information about attractiveness of landscape to visitors (Blasi et al, 2005;Daniel, 2001;Goossen and Langers, 2000;Krause, 2001). Apart from proper planning, trails need to be constructed optimally to provide recreation in a sustainable way, and there are several guidelines for trail construction in different environmental settings (Crimmins, 2006;Hesselbarth et al, 2007;Marion and Leung, 2004;Marion and Wimpey, 2007;USDA, 2006;Zeller et al, 2006).…”

“…Çevrenin insan üzerindeki davranışa dönüşen bu etkisinin nasıl algılandığı nasıl yorumlandığı ve nasıl değerlendirildiği, görsel algılama süreci sonucunda oluşan "görsel peyzaj kalitesi" olarak tanımlamaktadır. Görsel peyzaj kalitesi "bir peyzajın göreceli olarak estetik kusursuzluğu" olarak da tanımlanabilir ve gözlemcinin beğenisi aracılığı ile ölçülebilir (Lothian 1999;Daniel 2001;Kalın 2004;De La Fuente et. al.…”

ÖzetBu araştırmanın amacı Erzurum ili, Tortum ve Uzundere ilçelerindeki bazı rekreasyonel tesislerin görsel kalite değerlendirmesini yapmak ve yöredeki mevcut peyzaj bileşenleri ile görsel kalite arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendirmektir. AbstractThe goal of research, is to make visual quality assessment of some recreational facilities in Tortum and Uzundere districts of Erzurum province and to evalue association between visual qualities with existing landscape elements in location. Research areas constitute from part between 64-102 kilometers of Erzurum-Artvin (D950-02) highway. In the study was used four pieces photographs representing recreational facilities and carried out survey study with 200 people. İn made evaluation, became the highest values having image Yedigöller Alabalık Tesisleri 4 (YP4) in harmony (6,58), diversity (6,34), average virtality (6,40) and average visual quality (6,44). The having lowest values images became Aksukapı Dinlenme Tesisleri 1 (AP1) in harmony (1,71), average virtality (1,69) and average visual quality (1,70) and Asmalı Konak Dinlenme Tesisleri 1 (AKP1) in diversity (1,66). In addition, in research was concluded that visitors evaluate more effective and high quality for visual aspect images offering diversity in terms of elements landscape and to be compatible with each other and form a unity of natural and cultural elements belonging to landscape.
