A dataset of spatial distribution of tourism resources in the Yellow River Basin in 2022
The Yellow River,known as the mother river of the Chinese nation,boasts rich and distinctive cultural tourism belts in China.The data on the spatial distribution of tourism resources in the Yellow River Basin are crucial for the development of the tourism industry in the basin and for informed decision-making.In this study,we used county-level administrative boundaries as the fundamental units and referred to the tourism resource inventories from each county.Adhering to the national classification standards for tourism resources,we compiled and organized the cultural tourism resource catalogs,statistical yearbooks,and vector electronic maps of the Yellow River Basin provided by the National Science and Technology Resource Sharing Service Platform,as well as data from the counties(districts)and statistical bureaus within the Yellow River Basin.Employing spatial statistical analysis methods,we systematically extracted and integrated spatial distribution data of tourism resources across the entire basin,categorized by type and grade.The dataset includes thematic data on above grade-A tourism resources,covering approximately 800,000 km2 of the basin,including both natural landscapes and cultural landscapes along the Yellow River in nine provinces,categorized into 2 primary classes and 10 secondary classes.The dataset is expected to provide scientific foundation for decision-making in the planning,development,utilization,and conservation of cultural tourism in the basin.
