Public transport plays an important role in urban mobility. Public transport planners seek to improve existing public transport networks to better serve existing passengers and recruit new passengers, particularly as demand patterns change with evolving demographics and land use. One strategy for network improvement is to add new routes, which can improve service by reducing circuity in the network. In large, complex, and multi-modal public transport networks, it is challenging to determine where new routes should be added. A systematic approach for incremental network improvements, such as adding new bus services, is needed. This research proposes a new approach to network-level public transport planning by combining origin-destination (OD) level analysis with new spatial aggregation methodologies, and develops a comprehensive framework for the identification of corridors for new bus services. In the context of this framework, this dissertation contributes several new methodologies. First, it proposes a methodology for defining zones that reflect the spatial characteristics of a public transport network. This produces zonal pairs that are appropriate for OD level analysis of travel in the network. Second, the dissertation develops metrics and rules for the identification of OD pairs that can benefit from new bus services, and proposes methods for estimating the expected benefits of such services at the OD level. Finally, a new methodology for spatially clustering OD pairs into corridors is developed, based on trajectory clustering methods. This final methodology represents a new way of aggregating OD level information to accomplish the first step in bus network design: the definition of corridors for new services. The framework is demonstrated for the identification of corridors for new bus services in the London public transport network. Bus stops and rail stations are clustered into 1,000 zones. A subset of zonal OD pairs with circuitous service are identified as candidates for improvement through new bus routes. An algorithm that clusters OD pairs into corridors for bus service is developed and applied. Several promising corridors are identified, and their potential is confirmed in post-analysis.

The institutional and financial circumstances at many transit agencies significantly constrain the bus planning process. Long-term planning focuses on major infrastructure projects, while short-term planning focuses on scheduling and minor service adjustments. Medium-range bus planning is given limited attention in many agencies, especially those with significant capacity constraints. Recent research has developed a new method of assembling data that has the potential to be very useful to service planners: origin, destination, and interchange inference (ODX), which uses farecard and vehicle location data to provide a previously unavailable level of geographically precise disaggregate data on passengers' linked trips. This research develops a framework for using ODX for medium- to long-range bus planning. It proposes a service planning process that targets limited resources at the areas that need them most. It develops tools and methods for using ODX data to design and evaluate realistic, practical, and incremental service changes to improve accessibility to key parts of the agency's service area. The process has five phases: identification of target locations, analysis of those locations, development of proposed service changes, evaluation of those proposals, and post-implementation review. Several case studies are presented using data from the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA), the transit agency for the Boston region. First, three target locations in the MBTA service area are analyzed. Service changes that would improve access to each of these locations are proposed and evaluated, including additional frequency on an existing route, the creation of a new route, and extensions of two existing routes. ODX and related data are used to analyze each proposal in detail in a process that can be replicated by other agencies with similar data.

Texto completoLövholmen, Stockolm´s last central industrial area, is to be transformed into a high-density residential area. This thesis presents (i) a critical analysis of the proposal from the City of Stockholm, (ii) and my alternative proposal for Lövholmen; “Färgholmen - New Urban Form”. I have approached this thesis project through an architect’s curiosity and a questioning perspective, aiming to understand how to promote essential values such as green areas, daylight conditions, civic space, and varied typologies that include mixed housing and achieve high exploitation. I challenge the City´s profit driven developments that lack the aforementioned essential values. I challenge the boundaries between different property owners. I aim to holistically create a neighbourhood that is connected within itself and with Stockholm City; a destination for art, culture and community, an imprint in history that reflects our contemporary time. My proposal achieves 90% of the developed built space, compared to Stockholm’s proposal, whilst increasing green area and shared space, i.e. in form of a centralised green park. Low rise buildings along the coastline gradually increase in height, creating diverse typology and scale whilst reducing wind tunnels and shadows. This thesis shows a new urban form, promoting essential values whilst achieving a dense living city.

Texto completoThesis titled: Stockholm – the fashion capital of Scandinavia? A study in strategic planningbased on retail company perspective, in collaboration with the tourism sector. Course: Bachelor thesis in Business Administration, focus on marketing, 15 credits, Stockholm University School of Business Author: Linda Holdo, Hanna Jäderholm and Mariah Lindborg Supervisor: PhD Andrea Lucarelli Keywords: Retail, tourism sector, strategic planning, brand building, destination, retail marketing, Stockholm city. Problem: The trade want to utilize the growing tourism sector in order to gain market share. The problem for retailers is the lack of strategic planning. Purpose: The aim is to create a proposal on strategic planning that retail companies, in collaboration with the tourism sector, can use to fill a practical gap that currently exists. Method: The study was conducted with 12 pieces of qualitative semi-structured interviews. Participation in two seminars and examining four reports provides the primary data. Secondary data are based on scientific papers and literature. Interpretation of the collected data has been made along a hermeneutical approach. Theory: The theory part consists of a literature review followed by a theoretical framework.The literature review presents city marketing from a destination perspective. Theoretical framework addresses head of strategic planning with the need to create a reliable strategic model from a business perspective. Then outlines factors that form the basis for strategic planning. Brand building is recognized as a factor with focus on image and identity. It then looks at the creation of customer value from a business perspective. The subject deepened with the retail value chain, customer grated value systems, customer loyalty and relationship marketing and experiences as a significant factor for retailers. Conclusion: The conclusion consists of a formed strategic model containing factors that are considered important for retailers future strategic planning. The model starts by mapping the definition of the target audience. Then the tourist group demand is mapped in a needs assessment in each core activity of the company. Along the client's needs a solution. Use of the strategy result in customer satisfaction, which can generate economic benefits, public relations and market share. It requires that an operator takes an overall responsibility for the execution of the strategic planning and creating clear communication between the retail and tourism sectors.

Texto completoSustainable destination development is regarded as an important engine for regional growth and development. Despite this, there is an uncertainty about what it means in practice and there is no clear guidance to how destinations can be developed without expense at the development of society and the existing environment. Through a discourse analysis of material obtained via planning documents and an interview, we have investigated sustainability aspects as well as the driving forces and contradictions in the establishment of Lalandia, a holiday destination, in Motala municipality. We find that trade-offs between economical, ecological and social values are made in favor of economic growth, which is a strong driving force in the establishment of Lalandia. The study thus indicate that the growth discourse dominates in the project, which is a result of the municipality's strong economic interest in the project.The results also show that what is considered sustainable or unsustainable depends on the individual actor's interpretation of the concept of sustainability, which confirms what has been found in previous research studies.

Texto completoENGLISH ABSTRACT: Tourism is emerging as one of the most important socio-economic sectors for developing as well as developed countries. Tourism incorporates features of the information society such as globalisation, mobility, and information reach and richness. A national Tourist Office or as commonly referred to Destination Marketing Organization is the core tourism product of any nation. The new forms of ebusiness are offering major opportunities for all tourism destinations and suppliers, whether large or small, to improve their business and remodel such in a more cost-effective manner. The study discusses the impact and existing relationship between ICT and tourism as an emerging ecommerce sector in the Zambian tourism industry. It focuses on the tremendous changes in consumer expectations for the Zambia tourism sector caused by the impact ofInternet revolution. The World Wide Web through Information and Communication Technology (lCT) is the driving force that is changing the tourism landscape and affecting the production, distribution and consumption of its products. This symbiotic relationship existing between ICT and the tourism sector provides an opportunity for the Zambian tourism industry to create a competitive advantage for the 21st century.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Toerisme kom as een van die belangrikste sosio-ekonomiese sektore in beide ontwikkelende sowel as ontwikkelde lande voor. Kenmerke van die inligtings-gemeenskap soos globalisasie, mobiliteit, inligtings-toegang, -reikafstand en -rykheid word ook in toerisme aangetref. Die kern toerisme-produk van enige nasie is 'n nasionale Toeriste Buro of, soos algemeen verwys word, 'n Bestemming Bemarkings Organisasie (BBO). Toerisme bestemmings en verskaffers, klein of groot, word vele geleenthede aangebied om ten middele van nuwe vorme van e-handel hulle besighede op koste-geskikte manier te verbeter en te hervorm. Die studie bespreek die impak van en die bestaande verwantskap tussen Inligtings en Kommunikasie Teknologie (IKT) en die toerisme-bedryf in die Zambiese toerisme industrie as 'n ontwikkelende e-handel sektor. Daar word hoofsaaklik op die geweldige impak van die Internet-revolusie op verbruikersverwagtinge in die Zambiese toerisme bedryf gefokus. Deur middel van IKT word die Wereld-Wye Web (WWW) die dryfkrag wat die toerisme landskap verander en die produksie, verspreiding en verbruik van sy produkte beïnvloed. Die wedersydse verwantskap tussen IKT en die toerisme sektor verskaf 'n geleentheid vir die Zambiese toerisme industrie om 'n mededingende grondslag vir die 21ste eeu te skep.

Texto completoIt has become increasingly common for cities and municipalities to take greater account of the place marketing, and to see the physical location as a brand. An early step in this process is to make the image measurements of the place, in order to develop better marketing strategies. A method often used in tourism research for this type of measurements is Etchner and Ritchie's theoretical framework. The framework is initially designed to measure visitor's image of a tourist destination.
Almost all previous research in this area is based on the visitor's perspective, but Olofsson and Skredsvik have used this framework to measure a location's image among the residents. They feel that the residents of a place can be seen as ambassadors of the place because they know the site well. To be aware about the image among the residents makes it possible to improve the things that the residents are unhappy with, but also enhance the images of the place which is positive.
The purpose of this paper is to evaluate whether Etchner and Ritchie's framework can be adapted to measure a location's image among its inhabitants, from the viewpoint of Olofsson and Skredsvik's adaptation of this particular framework. In order to generate data to answer the purpose of this paper, an image study among the residents in Botkyrka was carried out according to the method used by Olofsson and Skredsvik.
In addition to the results from the image study of Botkyrka, the paper has contributed methodological expertise in destination image research. Some of the main conclusions obtained in this paper is that the adaptation of Etchner and Ritchie's framework overall has worked well to measure a location's image among the residents. The original framework is of such a general nature which makes it possible to make adjustments to it, as long as the essential components of the framework remain. Another contribution from this study is that the material collected by this method can be used to statistically test the differences between various groups within the sample.
Det har blivit allt vanligare att städer och kommuner tar större hänsyn till platsmarknadsföring, och att se den fysiska platsen som ett varumärke. Ett tidigt led i denna process är att göra imagemätningar av platsen, för att bättre kunna utforma marknadsföringsstrategier. En metod som ofta används inom turismforskningen för denna typ av mätningar är Etchner och Ritchies teoretiska ramverk. Ramverket är ursprungligen utformat för att mäta besökares bild av en turistdestination.
Nästan all tidigare forskning på detta område utgår från besökarens perspektiv, men Olofsson och Skredsvik har använt detta ramverk för att mäta en plats image bland de boende. De menar att de boende på en plats kan ses som platsens ambassadörer då de känner till platsen väl. Att känna till platsens image bland de boende gör att man kan förbättra saker som de boende är missnöjda med, men även förstärka de bilder av platsen som är positiva.
Syftet med denna uppsats är att utvärdera om Etchner och Ritchies ramverk går att anpassa för att mäta en plats image bland dess invånare, vilket gjorts med utgångspunkt från Olofsson och Skredsviks anpassning av detta ramverk. För att generera underlag till att kunna uppnå syftet så har en imagemätning bland de boende i Botkyrka genomförts utifrån den metod som Olofsson och Skredsvik använt i en studie av Vara kommun.
Förutom de resultat som kommit fram om Botkyrka kommuns image så har uppsatsen bidragit med metodologisk kunskap inom destinationsimageforskningen. Några av de viktigaste slutsatserna som framkommer i detta arbete är att anpassningen av Etchner och Ritchies ramverk överlag har fungerat väl för att mäta en plats image bland de boende. Det ursprungliga ramverket är av så pass generell natur vilket gör att det går att göra anpassningar av det, så länge som de väsentligaste komponenterna av ramverket återstår. Ett annat bidrag som studien kommit fram till är att materialet som samlas in med denna metod går att använda för att statistiskt testa skillnader mellan olika grupper inom urvalet.

Texto completoIn recent decades, tourism has established itself as one of the leading economic sectors not only at the global scale, but also at national, regional, and local levels, and its multiplying effect is widely recognised, leveraging wealth in its own area of activity and across other economic sectors. However, tourism development does not always entail positive impacts, and it might actually be inconsistent with the principles endorsed by the concept of sustainability. In this context, the paradigm of sustainable development applied to the tourism activity constitutes one of the biggest challenges for the sector. The present research focuses on the issue of sustainability addressed to tourism destinations. Thus, it embodies the intersection between the existing conceptual models, highlighting synergies and best practice, and determines the inherent principles in tourism destinations’ integrated management, by foregrounding assumptions and their resulting benefits. It applies the conceptual model to the Alqueva’s tourism destination so as to understand the essential conditions for this region to become a renowned tourism destination within the scope of the escalating national and international tourism competition.

Texto completoOrigin and destination surveys are traditionally made from the participants' reports of all trips occurring in the last days, known as Diary Trip. However, a number of recent studies show that there are mistakes in the accounts of participants in traditional origin and destinations surveys, especially in relation to distance and time. These studies point the use of GPS (Global Positioning System) technology as a reliable way to obtain information about each trip leg. GPS technology, despite its limitations, is popularly available in recent years and presents significant results of real-time records, including short trips. Therefore, we surveyed the experiences of international origin and destination studies segmented by leg trip, using GPS technology. Based on this, a origin and destination survey was applied in the metropolitan region of Porto Alegre with GPS and Diary Trip. Foreign studies indicate that this is the best way to obtain the data and minimizing errors. The data collected in the origin and destination survey were tabulated in a database and the information recorded was treated in free graphics software. Therefore, it was possible to cross the data reported by the participants in the Diary Trips with the data recorded by the GPS. The analyzes suggest that all subjects had discrepancies in reporting the duration and distance, compared to the data actually reported. These discrepancies have been both positive and negative. The implications of these differences, between reported and recorded on the GPS data, for modeling, can be seeing in the modal choice model Multinomial Logit elaborate. The model developed from data recorded by the GPS indicates appropriate adjustments and significant outcome variables. The model developed based on reported data does not behave as expected, as previously established hypotheses, and presents no significant variables.

Texto completoA large proportion of Sweden's tax estimated revenue generated by the tourism industry. Sweden is due to this nutritional sharp increase created a national strategy for both government and business. One of the key words in this strategy is on sustainable destination development, which will increase more of the country's destinations' competitiveness in a sustainable way in order to create a stronger competitiveness in Sweden and internationally. Roslagen is a region that consists of four municipalities, three of these municipalities have formed a company called Destination Visit Roslagen AB. This study focuses on the planning regarding the hospitality industry seen over time in the region Roslagen. It also illustrates how this design looks today regarding cooperation and communication between the public and the private business. The study also describes how the planning around Roslagens tourism industry is controlled today by the company through agreements with municipalities, and how far this development is considered to be the best solution for the region. Finally also examines sustainability aspects of the destination developed and controlled. This study used a qualitative approach and a hermeneutic approach. To examine the planning of Roslagens tourism used primary and secondary data. The primary data consists of interviews with Norrtälje and Östhammar business leaders who for a long time and still work with the tourism industry development, and is with and ensures that the company Visit Roslagen care what the contract states. To get a broader picture of Roslagens planning also Visit Roslagens CEO interviewed. The secondary data consists, among other things, in a previous interview survey by Visit Roslagens project manager and some newspaper articles and a description of the agreements between the Company and the municipalities. To form an understanding of the topic destination development has previous research and literature used on destination development, planning and management, internal and external communications as well as identity and image, finally, in theory, paragraph describes the effects and sustainable development of the tourism industry. The findings in this study show that Roslagen over time have received a stakare merger between the public and private initiatives of public affairs who first were those who stood for the planning of destination development in the region. The national strategy was significant in this development, and created the motivation to form a company for this type of development. The Company has an agreement with each municipality. Local government agreements are similar and means that the company will manage; -turistutveckling, -turistservice, -Marketing and sales. The influence of the municipality of the company is through the agreements which are then followed up by the two local business managers. In addition to the agreement the company manages all planning on the tourism industry itself. Local authorities believe that this incorporation of the tourism industry planning is good for it to be more long-term when not various policy changes could affect various development decisions in the region, but that it instead is a lngsiktig planning under the agreements should be made in consultation between the tourism industry and the public through Agreements between local authorities and the company. Finally, Roslagens planning on destination development considered sustainable when there is a planning and an increasing interaction between public and private actors on the destination. With this planning increases the likelihood that social and environmental sustainability are protected when these factors are the hospitality industry makes money.

Texto completoVi ses fram på torget (Local expression of Lidköping for ‘meet you at the square’) is a thesis about attractive meeting places in public spaces. The post-modern person is once again searching to connect with others in public spaces but is lacking interaction opportunities. Therefore this thesis is largely focusing on social interaction between town inhabitants and how to favour it in public meeting places. In theory there are concepts, guidance and ideas on how to increase the attractiveness and effectiveness. It also covers how public meeting places effect the individual inhabitant and the municipality at large. Meeting places within public spaces have the possibility to give its inhabitants increased well-being, health and satisfaction. Through, for example; involvement, quality and safety strings are attached between a human and the municipality. If the inhabitant is experiencing affiliation and loyalty to the place itself it enhances its identity and strengthens mutually beneficial interaction. The municipality could consequently increase its competitive advantage and value for tourists and it’s own inhabitants.The purpose of the thesis is to create a new model that can form the basis for developing meeting places in existing public spaces. The model is based on previously un-tested theories and existing models of events, marketing and urban development. The model Att skapa attraktiva mötesplatser i det offentliga rummet (To create attractive meeting places in public spaces) is designed, tested, developed and expanded in the thesis. This is a case study applied to the Lidköping square. In the observed focus groups, consisting of inhabitants of Lidköping municipality, discussion focused on attractive meeting places, social interaction, and the Lidköping square itself. A set of empirical findings to use as a study base was the object of the exercise. It was generally found that people appreciate places that are safe and alive with possibilities for activities, interaction and relaxation. Attributes such as seating areas, nature elements and events are requested by the focus groups.This thesis argues that To create attractive meeting places within existing public spaces is a useful development tool and enables productive meeting places within public spaces. Based on the performed study the model is successfully filled in with the inhabitants opinions and suggestions. With some modification and further empirical study the model will be a useful tool that can be developed and used in current and future research. The thesis presents hypothetical suggestions on how to actually create an attractive meeting point at the Lidköping square. The model is also applicable to other places. This field of research is now started and opens up for further work involving the Lidköping municipality.

Retirement age migration is not new. However, it has recently been garnering the attention of both researchers and local policy makers. Older migrants present the possibility of economic stimulus without creating additional pressure on the labor market. That said, a majority of works on retirement migration come to the same conclusions. Conventional theories state that older people move to places based on natural amenities and recreation opportunities. Further, these findings are often utilize a binary dependent variable based on whether a county has achieved a certain level of growth from inmigration of all people age 60+. I argue that this view is too narrow. Older age migrants move for a variety of reasons. These motives also vary across different age, sex, and race-ethnicity characteristics of the migrants in question. Further, not all counties that attract older migrants have bountiful natural or recreation amenities. Not only have these unconventional retirement destinations (URDs) had different historical trajectories, they also possess a different kind of amenities that appeal to older people who have relocated to the area. Finally, a focus on binary retirement classifications misses both diversity in retirement patterns and fails to explicitly account for the influence of space in county desirability. The goal of this work is to address these issues. First, I discuss the history and theories of retirement migration. Second, I develop models accounting for variation across older age migrant groups with varying demographic characteristics. Third, I identify and describe URD counties. Fourth, I present the results of a small-scale survey, community leader interviews, and a new model with additional variables to get at what other kinds of things should be labeled as “amenities.” Finally, I examine the role of space in migration research. My analysis demonstrates that there is much to be learned from looking at spatial models, micro-regional effects, and relative advantage between neighboring counties. Results indicate that conventional theories of retirement migration, while not necessarily wrong, are at least incomplete. The addition of diversity, new amenities, and space may greatly enhance our understanding of older age migration and migration research as a whole.

Non-work destinations refer to the locational choices of people regarding where they go for non-work activity. My exploration focuses on the daily trips with a primary purpose of shopping, entertainment, dining and refreshment in Singapore. The uniqueness of non-work trips, compared with home-to-work commuting trips, is that we do not observe the spatial tractability of the alternatives (home and work locations are known). Travelers have flexibility in location and schedule for non-work destination choices, and such selections repeat day after day. The flexibility to choose a non-work destination turns the modeling and forecasting of these trips into a complex task because a combination of factors, including the location of the supply of non-work activities, the activity pattern of the traveler, and the cost of traveling, affects the selection of non-work destination alternatives. This thesis utilizes a spatial-temporal scanning tool on cellphone-locational data to improve the spatial representation of places with high concentration of human activity, and use these places as a proxy of non-work destinations. Then, a clustering algorithm characterizes the spaces at the interior of those previously identified places by the geometry, diversity and density of the commercial establishments that they contain. Finally, the results of two statistical models that estimate housing price and destination choice indicate that the characterization of places capture additional information, which are useful in identifying the characteristics of neighborhoods (or space) and representing the destination alternatives of non-work activity. The model of destination choice shows the potential of the method to construct richer spatial nested structures of destination choice to what is currently in the literature. The main contribution of this thesis is the systematic development of measures that are useful to urban planners in characterizing places. These measures can help us to improve our understanding of non-work destination travel behavior. Another finding is that the spatial organization of the offer of non-work activities in Singapore is reminiscent of Central Place Theory. The spatial structure of non-work activities is highly monocentric, supplemented by additional facilities spread across clearly defined satellite suburban places. Three places in Singapore emerge as the top non-work destinations: Bugis, Orchard Road and Downtown. The distinctive attribute of these three places is that they comprise a diverse and dense number of patches or sub-spaces catering to various audiences.

Texto completoThe study focus on the analysis of travel behavior from the perspective of gender. The literature review explores the concepts of gender, mobility and acessibility, searching for results in the intersection of these concepts. The study uses data from the Origin- Destination surveys for the Metropolitan Area of São Paulo, conducted in 1997, 1987, 1997 and 2007. Longitudinal analyses using different approaches explore the hypothesis that there are systematic differences in travel and activity patterns between genders. A unified database was constructed, allowing the longitudinal analysis of descriptive statistics, to perform cluster analysis and to estimate logistic regressions. The results allowed the identification of groups of similar behavior, to look at their composition and to select relevant dependent and explanatory variables for disaggregate modelling of travel demand. Groups resulting from cluster analysis have coincided with each of the four data collection periods, confirming the need to conduct longitudinal analyses. To better represent the concept of gender, a combination of the variables sex and position in family structure were used to define segments for analysis with quasi-poisson regression, using variables selected from previous stages of analysis. The results indicate significant differences in the daily number of trips between men and women, conditioned by their family roles. The understanding of these differences can improve transportation planning and policy making.

Texto completoL’arquitectura forma una part inherent del turisme urbà. Malgrat aquest fet, fins ara han estat molt poques les recerques portades a terme que facin referència a la interdependència entre el turisme urbà i l’arquitectura en general; així com de l’arquitectura contemporània en particular. Cal constatar també la manca de literatura pel que fa a les raons per les quals l’arquitectura contemporània atrau al turisme. Tenint en compte tot el anteriorment mencionat, la següent tesis es basa en la recerca de dues preguntes principals: 1. Quin és el paper de l’arquitectura contemporània en les destinacions de turisme urbà? 2. Què és el què fa que l’arquitectura contemporània atragui al turisme? Tenint en compte aquesta doble aproximació, la part teòrica de la tesis fou basada en una exhaustiva ressenya (incloent una àmplia varietat de disciplines relacionades) i dedicada a la pregunta principal de la recerca. D’aquesta manera, partint d’una visió contextual, s’ha demostrat que l’arquitectura contemporània pot jugar múltiples i importants papers dins el turisme urbà, així com contribuir a la imatge d’una destinació turística urbana. Lleial al segon principi de la pregunta de la recerca, la part empírica de la tesis fou construïda en l’exploració d’un cas d’estudi de recerca en els emplaçaments de Berlín i Pekín. Primerament, i mitjançant l’anàlisi del contingut de guies de viatges, en l’estudi d’ambdues localitzacions s’ha identificat una mostra d’arquitectura contemporània amb significança pel turisme. En segon lloc, i per cadascuna de les mostres de les unitats d’anàlisi, s’ha mesurat un nivell de significança turística específic que es relaciona amb els diferents papers (tipus) de turisme. També s’han observat trets i característiques específiques que es poden distingir entre les diferents tipologies de turisme observades i establertes Emprant tècniques d’anàlisis d’una, dues i múltiples variables, al llarg de la avaluació resultant de la informació, s’han identificat aquells trets i combinacions de trets amb una influència en la importància del turisme en l’arquitectura contemporània. Com a resultat, al voltant del 50% de les relacions analitzades mostraren indicis de dependència significatius. Modalitats importants per a la significança turística de l’arquitectura contemporània foren per exemple tenir una funció turística, ser accessible als visitants, ser de grans mides i mostrar predominança respecte a l’entorn construït. Malgrat tot, i depenent de l’avaluació dels diferents models de turisme, els resultats difereixen.

Texto completoOver the last decades, tourism has become one of the largest economic sectors worldwide, with a rapid and sustained growth, being considered an important vehicle for the development, prosperity and socioeconomic well-being of municipalities, regions and countries. Despite the associated benefits, the unregulated and uncoordinated development of tourism can lead to a set of risks and negative impacts on society and resources. Therefore, the strategic planning of tourist destinations is presented as a key process for the balanced development of tourism, aiming to establish a long-term strategy, promoting the tourist activity enhancement of performance and competitiveness, complying with the sustainable development principles. In this sense, this work pretends to conduct a thorough examination of the tourism system established in the municipality of Tomar, focusing particularly on the planning and management, identifying failures and their causes, as well as opportunities to exploit, with the objective of developing and optimising the activity. This research develops a theoretical support based on the current approaches of reference to the tourist destinations planning and management. The destination evaluation is supported by the research, which consists in the survey, diagnosis and analysis of the municipality's tourism system and its resources. The inventory of tourism resources and classification leads to the establishment of the resources levels of utilization and potential. Based on this evaluation, complemented by statistical analysis, analysis of interviews with local stakeholders and visitor surveys, with 310 collected responses, the strategic analysis of the tourism products is carried out. In this regard, the SWOT analysis of the tourism system is developed, which is the basis for establishing the vision, strategy and objectives of the activity, resulting in a set of measures, actions and guidelines for the municipality tourism development, according to the defined priority axes.

Texto completoIt has been discussed on this research based on Butlers Theory of the life cycle of a tourist destination, particular features associated with the experience of visiting the village of Alter do Chão, Santarém district, belonging to Tapajós Tour Pole, located on the western portion of Pará State. Based on a theoretical and empirical approach, it can be stated that there is a cyclical path in that district with a gradual change from a small fishermen and craftsmen village into a tourist destination. Method involved a broad literature review about the model life cycle of a destination, acquisition of secondary data from official documents and primary data collect through field interviews conducted with representatives of four social segments of the destination (community, organized civil society, Government and private sector). Results show that this tourist destination is positioned exploration and involvement phase. They also show that there is no appropriate infrastructure investment, and, the private and public tourism management bodies are still deficient. Therefore, there is a needs for better planning that should focus on the sustainability of the tourism in Alter do Chão - PA.

Texto completoEl cos de la tesi s'estructura en tres parts: un marc teòric on es fa una anàlisi sistemàtica de les principals interpretacions sobre l'evolució de les destinacions madures, un capítol dedicat al models territorials litorals que, a més de l'anàlisi estadística descriptiva de les dades fa una anàlisi de conglomerats jeràrquics per definir els clusters territorials turístics, i finalment, una classificació de les estratègies que han desenvolupat els municipis litorals per adaptar-se a les noves formes de la demanda turística.
Per a aquest darrer capítol s'ha entrevistat a 150 persones relacionades amb la gestió turística local i territorial dels municipis litorals catalans, a més d'estudiar els plans urbanístics i els documents d'estratègia turística. Això ha permès constatar que és principalment de l'àmbit local d'on parteixen les estratègies per adaptar-se a les noves formes de la demanda, i que aquestes respostes són diverses per què depenen del context (l'habitus habermasià) de cada municipi. Malgrat la diversitat, s'han pogut classificar les estratègies en cinc grups: les que intenten recrear l'espai turístic per convertir-lo en una autèntica ciutat per viure-hi tot l'any, les que es basen en la sostenibilitat, les que aposten per la hiperealitat, les que desenvolupen esdeveniments efímers i les que impulsen la millora de la qualitat del producte turístic tradicional. Generalment aquests canvis es desenvolupen per assaig-error, per intuïció, sense que responguin a un model preestablert. Una de les principals conclusions d'aquest apartat ens indica que hi ha pocs municipis que puguin explicitar el fons i la forma de la seva política turística. Per això es desenvolupen estratègies que es superposen, es barregen i, a vegades es contradiuen, fent que la política turística del municipi es reinventi contínuament. De fet, com dedueix una altra de les altres conclusions, el model turístic actual es basa en la innovació constant.
Pel que fa al capítol teòric s'identifiquen les principals interpretacions sobre el canvi de model turístic i es classifiquen en cinc grups: les teories evolucionistes (Butler, Doxey, Miossec, Gormsen, Holder) que estableixen que les destinacions turístiques han de passar necessàriament per determinades fases, les teories que pronostiquen el col·lapse del sistema per superació de la capacitat de càrrega, les interpretacions que es basen en el canvi de l'escala, que parteixen de la idea que el turisme ha deixat de ser una activitat regional a un fenomen global, les que atribueixen als avenços tecnològics el canvi en el model i les que emmarquen els canvis turístics en un canvi més ampli que afecta a una societat que passa a ser postmoderna. De l'estudi teòric es desprèn que hi ha consens sobre la idea de crisi del model turístic però no hi ha unanimitat sobre les causes d'aquesta crisi ni sobre el nou model turístic que ha de sorgir.
L'estudi empíric de les variables de l'oferta turística litoral, que és l'aportació principal del capítol dos, ha permès treure moltes conclusions, tant per l'estudi descriptiu de les dades com per l'anàlisi de conglomerats jeràrquics. En aquest breu resum només destacarem dues idees. La primera d'elles contempla que el litoral no és homogeni sinó que està constituït per cinc tipus diferents de municipis que formen unitats orgàniques que es repeteixen per tota la costa. Entre aquests tipus de municipis hi ha el que hem anomenat ociurbs, que concentren gran part de l'oferta turística, els nuclis turístics que tenen un nombre important de població resident i aporten mà d'obra i serveis, i les ciutats perifèriques que tot i estar a la costa viuen al marge del negoci turístic. L'altra idea a destacar és que en vint anys la distribució de l'oferta turística en el territori ha canviat poc: als lloc on hi havia una gran concentració de places al 1981, l'any 2001 encara són els llocs que ofereixen més serveis d'allotjament. S'observa però un important canvi en la tipologia dels allotjaments: en els 20 anys estudiats els habitatges turístics s'han consolidat com la modalitat d'allotjament emergent, a molta distància dels càmpings i l'oferta hotelera.

Texto completoUm conceito bastante em voga atualmente e o de cidades inteligentes. Ele define um tipo de desenvolvimento urbano capaz de reduzir os impactos ambientais, melhorando os modelos atuais de acesso a recursos naturais, transportes, gestão do lixo, climatização residencial e sobretudo a gestão da energia (produção e distribuição). O massivo volume de dados produzidos por cidades inteligentes oferece uma grande oportunidade para analisar, compreender e melhorar o modo como elas funcionam e se desenvolvem. Esta explosão na quantidade de informações tem elevado a importância do aprendizado a partir de dados a um patamar extremamente elevado. Esta dissertação tem por objetivo descrever uma metodologia para aquisição e exploração de dados de um dos mais importantes pilares de cidades inteligentes: o sistema de transporte público. Como obter, armazenar e utilizar tais dados a fim de prover a todos os envolvidos, serviços telemáticos de alto valor agregado e o problema que se busca resolver neste trabalho. Cinco serviços telemáticos são propostos sob forma de prova de conceito: avaliação da cobertura da rede de transporte atual, seguida de uma proposta de novas linhas de ônibus; avaliação indireta da ocupação diária dos ônibus da cidade; cerca-eletrônica com os limites geográficos definidos pelos itinerários das linhas; serviços de alerta de velocidade e de manutenção. Os resultados são bastante coerentes e promissores, abrindo um grande leque de possíveis trabalhos futuros a serem explorados.
Smart city is a very trendy concept today. It defines a type of urban development capable of reducing environmental impacts, enhancing current models of access to natural resources, better transportation systems, waste management, residential climatization and, above all, energy management (production and distribution). The huge data volume produced by smart cities offers a great opportunity to analyze, understand and improve the way cities work and grow. This explosion in the amount of digital information has elevated the importance of learning from data to a higher level. This document aims at describing a methodology for acquiring and exploring data from one of the most important pillars of smart cities: the public transportation system. How to acquire, store and use such data in order to provide to all stakeholders telematics services with high added value is the problem that is sought to solve in this work. Five telematics services proof of concept are proposed: assessment of current network coverage followed by the proposal of some new bus lines; indirect evaluation of buses’ passengers occupation during the day; geofence with geographical boundaries according to itineraries; speed alert and maintenance reminder services. The results are very coherent and promising, opening up a wide range of possible future work to be explored.

Cruise tourism has enjoyed significant growth in both the capacity deployment and the market-size of passengers in Asia recently. Operating both as a turnaround port and a destination port, Keelung Port has been the most outstanding one among all the ports in Taiwan in cruise visits and passenger volumes. With this booming trend in Asia, it’s critical for the port managers of Keelung to come up with well-defined development and operations strategies. Following our motivation above, this study would focus on the strategic analysis and planning for Keelung Port as a destination port. We would apply Balanced Scorecard to examine the strategic goals and key concerns from four perspectives, carefully build the logic links between two neighboring perspectives, establish strategy maps, and propose the corresponding action items as the means to improve the service quality of cruise lines and visitors as destination port for Keelung.

Texto completoSocial media has been a widely discussed subject in the marketing and tourism literature. Even though most of tourism entities have adopted social media as marketing tool, its real potential and benefits still remain unclear for most of companies and businesses involved. Also, there is little evidence on the purposes of using social media in the travel planning and whether these platforms are relevant or not for companies to market their products and destinations. This project aims at understanding the role of social media in tourists’ travel planning while analyzing the current role of Destination Management Organizations (DMOs) in destination promotion. This study comprised a survey with 200 tourists visiting the city of Lisbon. It was examined their usage of social media in travel planning, sites content information and influence in their travel plans and destination image. The analysis suggests social media is a relevant source in tourists’ travel planning, providing a wide range of information and used throughout all travel planning stages. Also, research claimed social media content is perceived as trustworthy and it will influence tourists travel plans as well as tourists’ destination overall image. In addition, the current level knowledge and satisfaction with Portuguese DMOs social media sites content and features was also analyzed and further combined with a qualitative study of two DMOs interviews. This work provides insights of social media usage in the travel context and ultimately point solutions for DMOs to use them as a marketing tool. Given the fact this is one of the first studies analyzing Portuguese DMOs social sites, several recommendations are provided for future research.
O tema das redes sociais tem sido amplamente discutido na literatura de marketing e turismo. Ainda que a maior parte das entidades turísticas tenha adotado as redes sociais como ferramenta de marketing, o seu potencial e benefícios ainda parecem não ser totalmente conhecidos pela maior parte das empresas e negócios. Acresce a isto, parece predominar pouca fundamentação científica relativamente aos motivos de utilização das redes sociais no planeamento de viagens, e na importância destas plataformas para as empresas na promoção de produtos e destinos. A presente tese procura aprofundar o papel das redes sociais no planeamento das viagens pelos turistas e analisar o papel atual das Destination Management Organizations (DMOs) portuguesas na promoção do destino. Este estudo compreendeu uma pesquisa quantitativa a 200 turistas que visitavam a cidade de Lisboa. Foram examinadas a utilização das redes sociais no planeamento das viagens, conteúdo dos sites e influência nos planos de viagem e imagem do destino. A análise sugere que as redes sociais são uma fonte relevante no planeamento das viagens pelos turistas e usada durante as fases de planeamento da viagem. Sugere-se ainda que o conteúdo apresentado nas redes sociais é confiável e que este influencia os planos de viagem bem como a imagem do destino pelos turistas. O nível de conhecimento e satisfação como os sites de redes sociais dos DMOs portugueses foram também analisados e posteriormente combinados com um estudo qualitativo de duas entrevistas a DMOs nacionais. Este projeto visa contribuir para uma melhor compreensão da utilização das redes sociais no âmbito turístico e sugerir soluções para os DMOs para utilização destas plataformas como meio de promoção. Sendo este estudo pioneiro na análise das redes sociais destas entidades turísticas, é apontado um número de sugestões para pesquisa futura nesta área.

Mehrabian-Russell Theory believes that tourists' positive or negative reactions to the attraction's emotions will cause their reaction of approaching or avoiding; however, dark tourism is a tourism type that is surrounded by tragedy which often triggers tourists’ negative emotions. These emotions are completely different from leisure activities that tourism is generally considered to be entertaining. The purpose of this study is to understand the degree of travelers’ preference for dark tourism attractions by using online travel planning sites. This study is conducted in empirical method, aiming at Matsu's dark tourism attractions. To explore traveler’s acceptance degree of dark tourist attractions, the study is carried out through dark tourism information disclosure and the use of two-factor design of different time-constrained. There are 249 subjects involves in this study and they are divided into four groups. The results reveal that there is a significant negative effect on travelers’ desire toward dark tourism due to the dark tourism elements and time constraints. As for dark tourism attraction, the results represent that the disclosure of dark tourism information has a significant negative effect on tourists’ travel intention and recommendation attitude toward dark tourism attractions. Yet, there is a significant positive effect on tourists’ negative emotions. Also, there is an obvious correlation between travel intention and the attitude recommendation attitude toward dark tourism attractions. The result of this study can be viewed as the feedback of tourists’ travel intentions and emotional reactions, and it could be the reference for travel agencies and management units of dark tourism attractions to develop more attractions and organize marketing strategies.

The purposes of the study were to investigate the formation process of destination image and measure factors of planning graduation field trip of the ninth grade student. The researcher hope the study can provide destinations suggestions and measure factors for teachers and planners for planning graduation filed trip. The researcher used qualitative research method and interviewed the purposive selected 7 teachers and 2 tour guides in New Taipei City. The results of this study were (1) The formation process of destination images is from “original image” to “travel motivation” (educational, recreational, manufacturing memories, broaden their horizons and the past tradition) to “collect information” (past experience, exploring the way forward and the travel agency recommendations) to " benefit assessments"(security, price, transport distance, easily held and age). (2) Measure factors of planning graduation field trip include "soft resources"(interpretation, license certification and experiential activities), "physical facilities" (attractions’ facilities, space and hermetic sites), and "environmental atmosphere" (novelty and popularity). According to this study, the researcher make specific recommendations to teachers and school field trip organizers, educational authorities, travel agencies, recreation site operators, and future studies.
