Culture, Nature and Sustainable Tourism Development: a space-time analysis on...João Romão
Despite the close relation between tourism and the territory, the application of spatial analysis methods in tourism is not abundant in the literature.
The recent developments in the analysis of space-time models, the existence of geo-referenced information and the availability of suitable software tools create new opportunities for studying the role of space in tourism activities.
An exploratory spatial data analysis is developed and a space-time panel model is computed in this work in order to analyse the relations between tourism demand and the existence of infrastructures, cultural assets and natural resources in European regions,
Spatial effects have been clearly identified.
