Spatial distribution characteristics and influencing factors of homestays in Northern Anhui Province
The scientifically reasonable spatial distribution is an important factor in promoting the development of the homestay industry and is crucial for the growth of the regional tourism economy.This study takes the rel-atively underdeveloped Northern Anhui in the Yangtze River Delta as research object,using POI data extraction technology based on the ArcGIS 10.8 platform,and employs nearest neighbor analysis,kernel density analysis,and buffer zone analysis to explore the spatial distribution characteristics of homestays in Northern Anhui and their influencing factors.The study finds that:(1)The spatial distribution of homestays in Northern Anhui shows a pattern of global dispersion and local aggregation and characteristics of dense in the south and sparse in the north.(2)The spatial distribution of homestays has a completely positively correlated with scenic areas and water systems,a certain positive correlation with population factors,and a negative correlation with trans-portation factors,exhibiting dependencies on scenic areas,tendencies towards water systems,population aggre-gation,and transportation aloofness.(3)The ranking of influencing factors on the spatial distribution of home-stays in Northern Anhui is as follows:scenic area factors,population factors,transportation factors,and water system factors.
