Community Image Surveys
The Community Image Survey
Based on the Visual Preference Survey developed by architect
Anton Nelessen, the Community Image Survey is a very effective
tool for educating and involving community members in land
use planning.
The Community Image Survey consists of 40 slides from a community
or region. Approximately 80 percent of the slides come from
the specific locale in which the survey is administered. Taken
as a whole, the 40 slides present contrasting images of our
living environment - its streets, houses, stores, office buildings,
parks, open space and key civic features.
