Abstract:In light of the emergence of the “low-altitude economy” as a national strategy, logistics drones—its primary operational carriers— are undergoing signifi cant advancements in delivery effi ciency. Concurrently, these drones introduce novel challenges to the urban acoustic environment owing to their distinctive noise spectral characteristics. This study concentrates on suburban regions to examine how visual landscape features infl uence public audiovisual perception in the context of logistics drone noise. Tanzhou Town in Zhongshan City was designated as the experimental site, with the DJI FlyCart 30 utilized as the standardized sound source. A soundwalk experiment was carried out across 12 typical scenarios at three fl ight altitudes (20 m, 30 m, 40 m), collecting data on visual environmental indicators (vegetation, sky, buildings, hardscape), auditory indicators (A-weighted equivalent continuous sound pressure level, kurtosis), and subjective perception indicators (satisfaction, annoyance, calmness, and coherence). Audiovisual environmental features were quantifi ed using acoustic measurements and computer-vision–based semantic segmentation techniques. A Multilevel Linear Model (MLM) was then developed to examine the mechanisms underlying the infl uence of audiovisual factors on subjective perception. The results indicate that under the infl uence of drone noise, public satisfaction is positively correlated with the proportions of top-layer vegetation, bottom-layer vegetation, and sky. Conversely, auditory annoyance increases with the proportions of hardscape, bottom-layer vegetation, and sky, whereas it decreases with higher top-layer vegetation. Soundscape calmness is infl uenced solely by auditory factors, showing a negative correlation with acoustic kurtosis and equivalent sound pressure levels. Meanwhile, coherence is primarily negatively aff ected by the proportion of bottom-layer vegetation. Accordingly, this study proposes targeted planning control and spatial intervention strategies from four dimensions: regional control, fl ight route optimization, greenery confi guration, and ground surface material renewal. These fi ndings provide theoretical and practical pathways to mitigate the noise issues associated with the development of the low-altitude economy.
