Abstract

Les îles de la Polynésie française, et en particulier l’île de Bora Bora, sont des destinations touristiques très prisées pour la beauté de leurs paysages. L’originalité de ces îles tient au type d’infrastructures hôtelières privilégiées : les bungalows sur pilotis, une formule de chambre « pieds dans l’eau », offrant un accès direct au lagon. Tous les acteurs liés à l’activité touristique, que ce soient les hôteliers, les élus politiques, les habitants de l’île et les touristes eux-mêmes, ont chacun une perception et une représentation différentes des bungalows et de leur omniprésence dans le paysage. Le but de cette étude est d’expérimenter un outil scientifique, un modèle, capable de quantifier l’impact visuel des bungalows dans le paysage. Il s’agit de mesurer l’angle de vue que l’observateur a sur les bungalows ; cet angle correspond à l’étendue de l’obstruction du champ visuel de l’individu. Cette théorie touche un point sensible dans la relation entre les sciences dures et les sciences humaines : est-il possible de quantifier mathématiquement une notion subjective comme l’estimation d’un impact visuel ? Le modèle, en plus d’être valide scientifiquement parlant, devra être représentatif de l’opinion de tous les groupes sociaux impliqués dans le projet en élaboration et aider à instaurer un dialogue entre eux. Tourist growth and bungalows visual impact in the landscape of Bora Bora Islands. French Polynesia islands, Bora Bora in particular are valuation tourist destinations for the beauty of their landscapes. The originality of these islands runs in privileged hotel infrastructures : bungalows built on piles, overwater bedroom with a direct access to the lagoon. All the actors who are bound by the tourist activity : the hotel trade, the elected representative, the inhabitants, tourists have their own perception of bungalows and their omnipresence in the landscape. The aim of this study is to try out a scientific tool, a model, able to quantify the bungalows visual impact in the landscape. This analysis consists in measuring the corner of the view that has the observer on bungalow. This corner represents the obstruction of the individual field of view. This theory concerns a sensitive point in the relation between the exact sciences and humanities : is it possible to quantify mathematically a subjective notion like the visual impact estimation ? The model must not only be valid scientifically but also be representative of all project involved social group opinion and help to establish a dialogue between them.
