Geoinformatics in Tourism-a Case Study
Subscribe/Renew Journal
Arc View GIS software, have been used to customize, keeping in mind, the various entities to be used for the particular study area useful for tourist information system of the place, after the generation of various thematic information. Though some database inventory was made using secondary data for the study, an additional information was collected first hand from the site. A lot more effort needs to be put up for collection of data upon which information could be made available to the tourists/pilgrims visiting Devghar. The present study has explored but a tip of the iceberg. The analysis and the result of the study gives web enabled solutions for the tourist related information.
