Tourism oriented GIS project for the district of Michalovc
Tourism has considerable importance in the economic and social context of countries. Therefore, tourism development strategiesare being formulated for the support Slovakia’s progress at a regional and national level. If the contribution of tourism to economy andits development potential are taken into consideration, traditional methods of tourism-related information dissemination are inadequate.When planning, taking decisions, , analysing the effect of changes, looking for patterns, etc., we may have to look at maps, tables,charts, lists, graphs or reports, and sometimes it is rather difficult or nearly impossible to pull all these sources of information togetherand make sense of them. Geographical information systems (GIS) however, have the capability to handle several types of informationthat can be related to a specific area. Therefore, using GIS, it becomes possible to integrate tourism related information, visualizecomplex scenarios, present ideas and derive effective solutions. GIS is in Slovakia is just becoming known as a valuable analytical toolby the tourism industry and as a tourism economic development tool by local government.
