Abstract: How to explore the potential value of landscape, realize the organic combination of tourism landscape, enrich landscape elements and enhance tourism experience has become an important topic of tourism landscape planning and design, which is also a practical problem that needs to be solved urgently in the process of tourism landscape development and planning in different regions of China. The tourism landscape planning design scheme evaluation based on the virtual reality technology a typical multi-attribute group decision-making (MAGDM) problem. With the complexity of economic activities, uncertain information has an increasing impact on production activities. However, due to the ambiguity and uncertainty of human cognition, the factors affecting the risk of things cannot be accurately expressed. Therefore, selecting spherical fuzzy sets (SFSs) can make the expression of information more accurate and complete. On basis of the TODIM method and the PROMETHEE method, in this study, spherical fuzzy number TOMIM-PROMETHEE (SFN-TOMIM-PROMETHEE) method is implemented to solve the MAGDM problem under SFSs. Furthermore, CRITIC method under SFSs is implemented to determine relative weights. Then a numerical example for tourism landscape planning design scheme evaluation based on the virtual reality technology is selected to illustrate the effectiveness and practicality of the method. Finally, the comparative analysis shows that the SFN-TOMIM-PROMETHEE method under SFSs is an effective method to deal with MAGDM problems. The main contribution of this paper is managed: (1) the TODIM and PROMETHEE technique was extended to SFSs; (2) CRITIC technique is employed to manage the weight values under SFSs. (3) the SFN-TOMIM-PROMETHEE technique is founded to manage the MAGDM under IVPFSs; (4) a numerical example for tourism landscape planning design scheme evaluation based on the virtual reality technology and comparison analysis are constructed to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the SFN-TOMIM-PROMETHEE technique.
