4. The roles of gis in tourism management
Tourism has a strong geographical attributes. And GIS itself is information systems offering services
to geographic research and decision-making, which can play roles in tourism management. In particular,
possessing the functions, such as data collection, storage, processing, spatial analysis and so on, GIS
directly provides services for tourism management. The roles of GIS in tourism management are mainly
in the following areas:
4.1 Conducting Tourism Information Management
Under the situation of the continuous development of computer science and information technology,
the information means time, efficiency and money. And accurate travel information can save the cost of
travellers and improve the services and management level of tourism management sector. Currently, the
applications of Internet and TV in tourism management have been very popular, but in terms of the depth
of information technology application, the development of information technology in tourism
management lags behind the overall level of tourism development. Tourism information resources are
scattered and can not shared by all the tourists, and lack analysis of space multimedia technology during
its exploring process, so tourists are not satisfied with its products. The GIS has both the information
gathering and storage capabilities and the information analysis and processing functions, so that it can
provide services to tourism management from two fields. Firstly, from the tourist point of view, GIS has
powerful information storage features and can provide travel information inquiry service for tourists.
Secondly, from the travel management service sector point of view, it can make tourism management
more easily.
4.2 Being Able to Produce a Comprehensive Thematic Map
When travelling, if tourists have a comprehensive tourist map, they will be able to click to visit and
get better travel services. The traditional tourist map are paper-based, because of space limitations, it is
difficult to provide detailed scenic status. A very important advantage of GIS is that it has very powerful
text and image editing functions and data maintenance is also very convenient. It can greatly reduce the
cost of the plans and avoid the cumbersome process of traditional mapping. Compared to traditional
paper tourist map, the advantages of GIS drawing tourism plans are obvious. Meanwhile, because of its
tiered storage capabilities, tourists can not only output a map including all tourism elements, such as
terrain, road transport, services, facilities, tourist attractions and so on, but also superpose one or a few
elements and then output the map in the use of GIS. This brings the convenience to tourists.
