旅游流空间数据获取的基本方法分析——国内外研究综述及比较

Analysis of the Basic Method of Collecting the Spatial Data of Tourist Flows:A Study Review and Comparison both at Home and Abroad

有效、准确的旅游流数据获取是决定旅游流研究科学性的关键问题之一。文章通过对国内外旅游流相关研究中的旅游流空间数据获取方法的梳理,认为旅游流数据获取的基本方法有观察法、旅游者时空账户、现代追踪技术、二手面板数据和其他途径等5种,通过成本、效率、可操作性、拓展性和准确性等方面对5种方法进行了比较和述评,并对比国内外相关研究的差距与不同。文章指出,目前国内旅游流研究仍存在数据获取方法单一、现代技术应用不足、重视程度不够等问题,尚未实现与国际研究的全面接轨。文章旨在能够引起旅游管理部门和研究者对旅游流数据获取的重视,以科学、有效的途径收集准确、适用的数据,提高旅游流研究的科学性和对旅游业发展实践的指导意义。

How to obtain the efficient and accurate data of tourist flows is one of the key problems to determine the scientification of the study of tourist flows. The paper, through the review and summary of the collecting method of spatial data of tourist flows from the relevant studies both at home and abroad, classifies them into five categories： observation, time-space budget of tourists, modern tracking technology, second-hand paned data and other methods, and then compares and comments on the cost, efficiency, operability, expansion and accuracy. After comparing the gap and difference of relevant studies both at home and abroad, the paper points out that domestic studies on tourist flows are beset with some problems, such as unitary way of collecting data, insufficient application of modern technology and less attention paid on the collection. We have not completely followed international practice on this study. The paper aims to arouse our tourism management departments and scholars to attach great importance to the collection of the data of tourist flows, improve the scientification of studies and offer guidance to the development practice with the collection of accurate and suitable data.
