湘西古村镇文化景观相似性评价与聚类分析

On Similarity Evaluation and Hierarchical Cluster Analysis of Traditional Settlements Cultural Landscape in Xiangxi Area

城镇化进程存在"千城一面"问题,新型城镇化应强调自身文脉的传承,要求充分发扬地方文化特色,构建地方特色鲜明的城镇,首要任务是对区域文化特征进行识别与分区研究。将综合评价方法和聚类分析方法引入到文化地理学研究,通过从物质文化景观和非物质文化景观角度构建古村镇文化景观相似性指标体系,并对相关指标进行定量化,评价分析了湘西古村镇文化景观的相似特征,最后应用聚类分析方法,进行了文化景观区划研究,将湘西地区分为侗族景观区、瑶族景观区、土家族景观区和苗族景观区,并对区域文化景观特征进行了分析。研究结果对区域规划与乡土文化保护和传承具有重要的指导意义。

In new urbanization progress, the cultural gene inheritance is the most important task, and the local culture should go down to next generation. Only in this way, the new town will be developed to be rich with Chinese characteristics. The primary task is to study the feature identification and regionalization. In this paper, a new solution was proposed by using comprehensive evaluation method and clustering method. First, the index system is used to analyze the similarity of different traditional settlements and it includes material landscape and intangible landscape. Then, all indexes are quantized and their weight is calculated. Third, the similarity of different traditional settlements is evaluated and hierarchical cluster analysis is done. The study area is divided into sub area, such as Dong nationality area, Yao nationality area, Tujia nationality area, Miao nationality area and multinational area. The research result has important guide meaning to regional planning and the local culture protection and heritage.
