Dynamic Settlement Assessment of Rural, Regional Cultural Evolution: A GIS-driven Data Mining Method to Support Architecture and Heritage Management Research

Abstract

This paper studies the development process of rural regional culture and architectural heritage management and probes into the GIS spatial analysis method and its application in architecture and heritage management. The use of GIS technology to assist the collection and visualization of rural landscape heritage spatial information includes four steps: 1) Heritage landscape research: to sort out the heritage value, landscape characteristics, spatial scope and components of rural landscape, etc., to provide a basis for spatial model research. 2) Data collection: Select appropriate methods, technologies and equipment to collect spatial information according to different spatial scales, spatial characteristics and accessibility factors. 3) Data processing: Building spatial models through image processing and GIS processing software. 4) Practical application: Re-develop the spatial model according to different application requirements. Through digital technology, the protection of Chinese rural regional culture can be carried out, and the sustainable inheritance of rural architectural cultural heritage can finally be realized.
