| Abstract: | This study has following objectives: to describe the characteristics of landscape values and development preferences on Kangaroo Island, South Australia, to determine which perceived landscape values best predict residential and tourism development preferences, to develop simple GIS decision model and to describe how the spatial information can be integrated with existing land use planning methods to improve land use planning decisions. Findings show that tourism development preferences are most closely associated with recreation, economic and scenic landscape values, residential development values with recreation, economic and learning values and "no development" with wilderness, therapeutic and intrinsic landscape values. |
