- Abstract in English : Knowledge on human reactions to visualisations and knowledge on the suitability of these visualizations to landscape preference is limited. This article aims at filling out some of this gap of information by criteria for evaluating the suitability of visualisation methods for forest landscape preference research purposes and by comparing the benefits and disadvantages of different means of visualisation: on-site visits, original and manipulated photographs, and virtual; landscape simulators. The focus of the article is on virtual landscape simulators that are totally or partly developed in Finland.
