Visual Quality Evaluations 
of Land Use Change


Assess the visual resource impacts of land-use change in ESL

  1. As a group, think about how your proposed land use will add to or detract from visual quality in ESL.
  2. Pick out 12-18 scenes from the survey results (on line via the links below) that represent the qualities of the neighborhood as it is now, and as it will be after the changes you propose.
  3. Using the Visual Quality evaluation form developed in-class, and the results of the on-line surveys presented below, evaluate:
    1. the current visual quality of your site, based on your best guess as to conditions, and
    2. the likely impacts of your proposed development on visual quality
  4. Prepare a report on visual quality as part of your land-use evaluation homepage, linked to maps, illustrations and any other relevant material within the ESLARP on-line resources.
  5. Either as credits within the report, or independently via e-mail, identify individual group members' contributions.
  6. Due: Wednesday, November 3.
