Geospatial ecological economic planning based on water-energy-agritourism nexus, a case study of Jilin Province, China
Abstract
How to use geospatial technology to plan the ecological economy reasonably and promote the sustainable development of regional ecotourism has become an important issue faced by the current society. On the basis of the relationship between water and energy, this article took tourist areas as an example to analyze the geographical and spatial distribution characteristics of ecotourism attractions. A comparative analysis was conducted between the experimental group's tourist areas planned using GIS (geographic information system) and the control group's tourist areas planned using traditional planning. It was found that the average ecological and economic income of the experimental group within 1 year was about 1.2661 million yuan, which was higher than the average ecological and economic income of the control group within 1 year. This indicated that using GIS geospatial technology for reasonable planning of tourist areas is important for improving the overall ecological and economic income of tourist areas. This article used this research to explore the importance of rational planning of the ecological economy. Building a good ecological economic structure in tourism development plays an important role in reducing water and energy consumption to promote sustainable development of the tourism industry. HIGHLIGHT This article analyzed the background and causes of ecotourism, studied the unreasonable factors of traditional tourism planning, and used the spatial analysis function of geographic information system on the basis of the relationship between water and energy to carry out the overall planning of tourism areas.;
