Homogenization and locality of landscape characteristics in the waterfront space based on geotagged photographs
The urban landscape reveals the relationship between the natural evolution process and artificial intervention force in the watershed system and also represents the most direct reflection of man–land relationships in watersheds. However, the homogeneity of modern urban functions affects the expression of cultural atmospheres. As a result, quantitative and qualitative analyses of the landscape homogenization level are of great significance for considering local culture in landscape planning according to locality conditions. In this study, open geotagged photographs were assessed to determine the landscape changes and differences in the Yangtze River Basin and the spatial characteristics of locality elements in order to identify the relationship between landscape locality and urbanization. The results indicate that the landscape element level changes gradually downstream of the Yangtze River and with increasing distance from the river bank. The closer the city to the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the less dominant the main landscape element of the city. Several landscape elements were significantly agglomerated in space, and this agglomeration distribution was attributed to the degree of urbanization.
