Evaluating the Impact of Green Visibility on Park Bench Utilization: A Case Study in Zhengzhou City, China

Abstract

Green visibility, is an important index to measure the degree of green vegetation coverage in urban open space. This study takes different theme parks in Jinshui District of Zhengzhou City as the object, based on the green visibility index, and uses semantic segmentation technology and Citespass software to analyse the relationship between seat setting and green visibility. The results show that too high or too low green visibility is not suitable for setting seats, and a good green landscape can effectively attract tourists to stop and rest. Accordingly, optimisation suggestions are made: placing the seats in locations with open views and moderate shading, and adopting plant configurations that promote natural ventilation and changes in light and shadow, in order to enhance the aesthetics of the park and the practicality of the seats, to provide a more pleasant resting environment for the public, and at the same time, to provide references for the design of the seats in the scenic landscape parks.
