Spatial pattern of county tourism elements in Guanzhong Plain Urban Agglomeration and influencing factors:Point of interest-based analysis
Using point of interest(POI)-based multi-source data,this paper analyzes the spatial pattern of tourism elements and the correlations between elements in the counties of Guanzhong Plain Urban Agglomeration,and explores the influencing factors by applying geo-detector and GIS spatial analysis techniques.The results show that:1)The spatial agglomeration characteristics of each tourism element in the urban agglomeration of the Guanzhong Plain at the county scale are significant,and the overall distribution of the tourism elements appears as follows:with Sanyuan County in Shannxi Province as the center of ellipse,they are distributed in a direction of east by north to south by west,and the standard deviation ellipse extends in the southwest of Shanxi Province,its area is relatively larger than that of Shaanxi-Gansu junction zone,and its basic pattern is highly consistent with the regional expansion direction and socio-economic development level of the urban agglomeration.2)The spatial correlation between elements is relatively poor,especially the element"food"is relative independence in some areas,which cannot meet the basic needs of tourists.So,the spatial pattern of tourism elements should be optimized.3)The explanatory power of the interaction between factors influencing the spatial pattern of elements is higher than that of the single factor,that means,the social and economic development,tourism industry development and the natural environment comprehensively impact the spatial pattern of elements,among which,the influences of factors such as the night-time lighting index,number of resident population,tourist arrivals,tourism income,elevation,slope and so on,are the most significant.
