Mapping potential nature based tourism in Jordan using AHP, GIS and remote sensing
ABSTRACT In the past few years, the demand for nature-based tourism (NBT) has increased significantly nationally and internationally. However, promoting NBT, especially at the local level, needs more attention. This study seeks to produce a map of NBT tourist attractions in Jordan that considers distance and cost. Analytical hierarchy process (AHP), geographic information system (GIS), and remote sensing were used. The use of the AHP model was based on a multi-criteria assessment of attractiveness, including landscape, accessibility, infrastructure, and facilities. For this procedure, 150 travel agency personnel were interviewed. The study results showed that desert attractions followed by forests and nature reserves had the highest priority in the AHP model, while the lowest priorities were recorded for water attraction. Based on this, managerial and theoretical implications are proposed.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Ecotourism seeks to advance the field by examining the social, economic, and ecological aspects of ecotourism at a number of scales, and including regions from around the world. Journal of Ecotourism welcomes conceptual, theoretical, and empirical research, particularly where it contributes to the dissemination of new ideas and models of ecotourism planning, development, management, and good practice. While the focus of the journal rests on a type of tourism based principally on natural history - along with other associated features of the man-land nexus - it will consider papers which investigate ecotourism as part of a broader nature based tourism, as well as those works which compare or contrast ecotourism/ists with other forms of tourism/ists.
