landscape factors

Landscape factors refer to the natural and human-made features of an area that influence its environment and use. This includes elements like terrain, water bodies, vegetation, climate, and landforms, as well as infrastructure, development patterns, and historical land use. These factors shape how land can be utilized, how ecosystems function, and how people's activities interact with the environment. Understanding landscape factors helps in planning, conservation, and sustainable development by considering the unique characteristics and limitations of each area.
