Preface

As an artistic heritage that can be traced back to the very beginning of human civilization, landscape architecture boasts a long history of 4000-5000 years in both the East and the West, and reflects the pursuit of a better living environment for mankind. Landscape architecture is not only built to meet people's functional and safety needs but also to discover and express nature, as well as to make people feel pleasant and comfortable. As of today, landscape architecture continues to be an important approach for humankind to implement sustainable environmental development. By building a sustainable living environment (human settlements), it helps us embark on the sustainable utilization of our environment. During thousands of years of evolution, landscape architecture has gradually demonstrated DSHUIHFWFRPELQDWLRQRIVFLHQFHDQGDUW2QWKHRQHKDQGODQGVFDSHDUFKLWHFWXUHLVFORVHO\ linked with the practical needs and aesthetic tastes of human beings; on the other hand, it is DOVRFRQVWDQWO\XVHGWRH[SORUHWKHVFLHQWL¿FODZVRIQDWXUH)URPDVFLHQWL¿FSRLQWRIYLHZ the laws of everything can be described in a quantitative way. Meanwhile, art is another presentation of human cognition and expression of the outside world. Landscape architecture is both science and art, characterized by both perceptual and logical thinking. Therefore, it has become the underlying logic and principle for modern landscape architecture to IROORZWKHGHYHORSPHQWWUHQGLQWKHGLJLWDOHUDDQGKLJKOLJKWLWVDUWLVWLFYDOXHDQGVFLHQWL¿F significance. Therefore, how to realize the organic integration of ecological environment and artistic form in the planning and design of modern landscape architecture is proved to be an emerging question in this era and a new starting point for the evolution of landscape architecture in the 21st century. Landscape architecture planning and design powered by digital technology are based on scientific analysis and evaluation, which is helpful to recognize and understand the laws RIQDWXUHLQDPRUHGH¿QLWHDQGV\VWHPDWLFPDQQHUZKLOHSURYLGLQJGLYHUVL¿HGPHDQVIRU artistic manifestation of the outside world and human perception of nature. Therefore, the emergence of digital landscape is inevitable for the development of landscape architecture. I believe that with further development of digital landscape research and practice, a new era will be unfolded for landscape architecture. Professor Cheng Yuning has been dedicated to the research and practice of digital landscape architecture for nearly 18 years. His topics range from the early application of the digital map overlay method and GIS in the evaluation of land ecological sensitivity and suitability, to the study of virtual reality, parametric design, sponge city and landscape color, to the quantitative research and interactive design of complex space, performance evaluation, etc. In the meanwhile, he paid close attention to the theoretical research of landscape architecture planning and design, and launched a long-term systematic study on the elements with digital potential. The good results he has achieved have been duly verified in practice. Professor Cheng has written Digital Landscape Architecture: Logic, Structure, Method and Application based on his long-term research achievements. This book systematically constructs the theory and methodology of digital landscape architecture and opens a new chapter of research and application in this field. It will promote the scientific landscape architecture development process. We would like to preface this paragraph with the wish that digital landscape architecture will enable landscape architecture to gain a brighter future.

undulating outdoor environment. In addition, changes in the terrain that serves as the base for planting design can alter the skyline and forest edge line in the landscape environment. Another important role of the terrain in shaping the space is to guid the line of sight )LJXUH &RPPRQWHFKQLTXHVLQFOXGHVKDSLQJDWWUDFWLRQVWRJXLGHWKHOLQHRIVLJKW shaping barriers to isolate the line of sight, and shaping the background. People’s line of sight is opposite in the raised and depressed areas. Both types of areas can be organized as viewing and landscaping areas. Convex terrain such as mountains and hills, as the visual focus, is often the landmark of the landscape. Water is often accumulated in a depressed area to form a lake, constituting the waterscape. Because of its centripetal, it LVVRPHWLPHVDORQJZLWKJUDVVVORSHDGRSWHGIRURSHQDLUWKHDWHUDQGRWKHUVSDFHV)RU any place with a requirement for privacy, the terrain can also be used to block the line of sight, and the effect is excellent and very natural. Terrain is often used as the background of space to contrast the landscape theme, and various terrain elements can be the background of each other. In addition, the terrain can not only guide people's sight, but also organize their behavior, shelter from the cold wind, improve microclimate, isolate noise, etc. Most of the landscape design objects have initial natural terrain as a limitation. Such present conditions result from long-term run-in between the site and nature, which in most cases is the optimum form shaped by nature. Therefore, the form of site terrain should be harmonious with it to yield the maximum environmental benefits with the minimum investment. 5) Vertical and habitat construction Habitat refers to the environment in which an individual organism or a population or community of organisms lives. It includes the necessary conditions for survival and other ecological factors that act on organisms. In ecology, habitat is also called wildlife habitat, which is formed by biological and abiotic factors. The soil layer not only sustains the growth of plants, but also contains a large number of microorganisms, insects, small animals, etc, which together constitute the ecosystem of landscape environment. If the soil ecosystem is destroyed in the design, a series of properties of the soil will be changed to affect the growth of plants. The biological factors shall be considered in vertical design operation, including distribution of plant species, coverage of species, abundance and dominant species, community type and pest status.

The habitats for plant growth are created with a good regulation over microclimate to meet the growth conditions of different plants. According to the soil and hydrological conditions of the site, suitable seedlings are adopted. In addition, through the combination of plant configuration and terrain, the wonderful landscape skyline is formed. The vertical planting planning and design can be carried out to shield the undesirable landscape while diversifying the garden space and creating a superior RXWGRRUHQYLURQPHQW)RUH[DPSOHLQWKHXUEDQGHVLJQRIWKH'DIHQJ+LJKWHFK=RQH the excavated terrain is introduced to form a river system, and the excavated soil is used for a hill to enrich the vertical space of the site.

4.2.1.3 Cut and Fill Balance and Vertical Design Optimization In the vertical design of landscape architecture, the reconstruction of site terrain is often LQGLVSHQVDEOHZKLFKLQHYLWDEO\LQYROYHVWKHFXWDQG¿OO(DUWKURFNDQGSURWHFWLRQZRUN is an important evaluation indicator of whether the vertical design scheme is reasonable and economical. It is also a compulsory basis for the estimated investment on landscape projects. Earthwork calculation is an important step in landscape project construction. The common earthwork calculation methods include the contour line method, the square grid method, the section method, the average elevation method, the DTM method, and the regional earthwork balance method. The triangular mesh method plays a key role in the Civil 3D earthwork calculation model. The earthwork is calculated by comparing the curved surface generated by road and terrain with the existing ground. This method of calculating earth quantities by two surfaces is more accurate than using other methods. In Civil 3D, the cross-section sample line of the road can be automatically created according to the mileage range or the specific mileage position, and the material list LVGH¿QHGIRUWKHURDG7KHHDUWKZRUNTXDQWLW\DQGURDGPDWHULDOTXDQWLW\DUHTXLFNO\ calculated in each stage of design to generate the earthwork allocation map as the reference for the construction cost, scheme optimization and accurate construction.

Earthwork and protection work in the vertical design of landscape architecture should be carried out in accordance with the following principles. (1) Meet the land use requirements Most earthwork adjustments in the design are meant to trim the area unsuitable for construction. Therefore, earthwork adjustment should first meet the functional requirements to ensure the safety and reliability of the project construction. (2) Reduce earthwork and ensure earthwork balance

It needs the nourishment of culture and art. Meanwhile, it cannot develop without the support of science and technology. Modern landscape architecture develops both perceptually and scientifically. It features qualitative descriptions and quantitative research. It has progressed from using uncertain designs to using robust and reliable solutions. The dual attributes and development of landscape architecture have determined that modern landscape architecture requires not only qualitative descriptions but also quantitative research. The "unity of science and art" has become a basic feature of modern landscape architecture. A systematic review of the latest research and practice in the contemporary living environment reveals the following characteristics. The scientific guidance should be emphasized in landscape planning and design, including but not limited to low-impact development, sponge city, ecological restoration, form repair, green infrastructures, park city, etc. Different from the historical focus on form and cultural concepts, contemporary landscape planning and design pays more attention to the solution to ecosystem problems. Landscape architecture always focuses on ecological and form issues at both micro and macro levels. Ecological and form issues must be properly addressed in landscape architecture planning and design. It is a trend in modern landscape architecture to use quantitative methods to support qualitative decisions to couple ecology and form. Environmental elements and systems that comply with the laws of nature must be changed as little as possible to meet people's requirements for development and construction. Digital technology can be used to easily and accurately obtain information about environmental systems to quantitatively evaluate the environment. This can help develop planning and design schemes and techniques for low-impact development and dynamically simulate environmental changes. Environmental data must be collected, analyzed, and evaluated using digital technology. In addition, the simulation and comparison of schemes, as well as performance studies, cannot be done without the support of digital technology. The use of digital landscape technology is encouraged to calculate the input to output ratio of low-impact development.

In the 1980s, I had access to the multi-layer analysis method. The subsequent CAD layer management function was helpful to greatly facilitate analysis and modeling. Then, I quickly found that the simple overlay could be equivalent. It ignores the system attributes of the environment and the intensity of the effects of different factors. © Southeast University Press 2023 Y.

Therefore, since the 1990s, I have been trying to utilize the weighted overlay tool to analyze environmental ecological sensitivity and land use suitability. Compared to the traditional ones, this overlay tool is closer to the natural system attributes. Ten years ago, I managed the foundation of the Digital Landscape Laboratory of Southeast University. Duly approved to be Jiangsu Digital Landscape Teaching Demonstration Center six years ago and Jiangsu Urban and Rural Landscape Digital Technology Engineering Center four years ago, it is a great platform for systematic digital landscape research and practice. With the approval of the Chinese Ministry of Education, the International Digital Landscape Architecture Conference has been held for four consecutive sessions since 2013. This has promoted digital landscape architecture research and practice in China. This book contains more than a decade of my key research and application achievements in digital landscape architecture. I received support from Academician Wang Jianguo in writing this book. It is a great honor for me to have him write the preface. I also received assistance from my students, such as Yuan Yangyang, Tan Ming, ;LH0LQJNXQ+RX4LQJKH=KDR7LDQ\L)DQ;LDQJQDQDQG)DQ
