The underlying assumption is that there is such a thing as Landvaluescape, equivalent to landscape. By replacing the ‘z’ in a conventional 3D geospatial model, with ‘v’ (the value of land with or without improvements on it) the reality of Landvaluescape is revealed. This equates to the use of weather maps to reveal real but intangible atmospheric geospatial phenomena. A whole new field of study, christened Ecomorphology by the author, is in prospect. The paper describes the current state of global practice in property assessment and in value mapping. Plans to develop and validate applications for a generic tool and recommendations for associated studies will be outlined.
