Research progress, hotspots, and trends analysis of sustainable landscape design based on bibliometrics

Abstract: In order to systematically understand the research characteristics of sustainable landscape design in the international scope, grasp the current research hotspots of sustainable landscape design, and analyze the future development trend according to the current research hotspots. Taking Web of Science as the source of literature data retrieval, VOSviewe and CiteSpace were comprehensively used to conduct scientific literature metrology and draw the knowledge map from the aspects of annual output distribution, country, research institution, author, keyword clustering and reference co-citation of literature within the scope of retrieval. Visualization and analysis of research context. The results show that the annual number of publications and the overall trend of literature within the scope of search are increasing, and China and the United States are in the leading position in the research field, and the research hotspots mainly focus on: urban landscape design, ecological protection design, theoretical methods and design evaluation.

Keywords: Sustainable landscape design, Knowledge graph, Bibliometrics, VOSviewe, CiteSpace
