| Summary: | This study delves into the intricate typology of Perak's cultural landscape through a comprehensive geographical mapping analysis. In Perak, the cultural landscape is experiencing changes, especially in the land and typology due to the overwhelming development. As cultural landscape plays a substantial role in historical and heritage values, efforts in documenting and analyzing the landscape change remain significant. This study documented a series of spatial data layers focusing on geographical context to describe and map the landscape typology in Perak. The geographical context including; agricultural landscape, coastal landscape, highland natural landscape, and lowland natural landscape was used as patches for the spatial and landscape-based metrics analysis. The analysis adopted the overlaying mapping technique by the Geographical Information System (GIS) in modifying and verifying the secondary data mapping by the Perak Structural Master Plan year 2040. The composite trajectory analysis in this study contributes to a more comprehensive cultural landscape typology toward sustaining cultural heritage value in the near future. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
