Perceptual definition

Perceptual means both sensory experience and interpretation. Sensory appreciation typically occurs simultaneously with interpretation, knowledge, and memory. What we know, remember, and imagine influences how we perceive a place.51 While sight is the sense most typically applied to landscape assessment, sensory perception importantly includes all the senses such as sound, smell, touch, and taste (the smell of the forest floor, sounds of a city, feel of the wind, sense of movement in the tides and waterways, tastes of an area’s foods, or of salt on the wind). Other terms sometimes used for the perceptual dimension include ‘sensory’ (which suggests only raw senses and does not capture the cognitive or interpretative aspect that is implied in the term ‘perceptual’), ‘aesthetic’ (which suggests a focus on beauty rather than wider appreciation), and ‘experiential’ which perhaps better conveys movement and active engagement.52
