“…Data DEM ditakrifkan sebagai set digital tersusun atau tidak tersusun bagi ketinggian tanah (ketinggian titik) untuk perwakilan rupa bumi (Zhou, 2017). Dalam konteks visual 3D, data DEM akan berupaya memberikan gambaran rupa bentuk muka bumi sebenar di dalam bentuk digital atau kontur seperti bukit, kawasan tanah rendah dan juga dasar sungai (Sieng et al, 2023). Peranan data ini sangat-sangat besar dalam kajian ini kerana daripada data ini dapat menghasilkan perbezaan tanah tinggi dan tanah rendah.…”

Pada tahun 5 Jun 2015, Sabah digemparkan dengan kejadian gempa bumi sekuat 5.9 skala richter yang menyebabkan sebilangan nyawa terkorban dan hartabenda. Fenomena ini juga menyebabkan perubahan fizikal muka bumi yang mengakibatkan frekuensi banjir di Kota Belud semakin meningkat. Kesan daripada frekunsi banjir ini memberi kesan kepada sosio-ekonomi penduduk di daerah tersebut dari aspek pendapatan, perniagaan, trauma, infrastruktur perhubungan terjejas dan juga tempat tinggal penduduk itu sendiri yang menjadi mangsa kepada banjir ini. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengenalpasti impak frekunsi banjir ini kepada penduduk di daerah Kota Belud dengan mengedarkan borang soal selidik di samping melawat kawasan kampung yang selalu terjejas dengan banjir. Secara kesuluruhan Analisis data adalah menggunakan kaedah Spatial Analysis (Arcgis) untuk mengesan kampung yang pempunyai kesan sosio-ekonomi dan hasil analisis soal selidik akan digunakan untuk menyokong dapatan analsis GIS. Kertas ini dapat disimpulkan bahawa terdapat hubungan antara kejadian frekuensi banjir dan implikasinya kepada penduduk kampung-kampung di Kota Belud berkaitrapat. Situasi ini akan dapat memberi gambaran yang lebih luas walaupun impak sosio ekonomi penduduk ini tidak dapat dilihat secara mata kasar dari pelbagai pihak.

“…A recent study by Sieng et al (2023) have also identified several advantages of using GIS in tourism, namely, regarding to the mapping of the five elements that these authors identify as the most important in a tourist destination: attractions, activities, accessibility, accommodation and facilities. In their study they found that using GIS techniques and approaches can contribute positively to produce “an accurate heritage trail map” which will benefit tourists (Sieng et al, 2023, p. 4) and decision-makers.…”

Purpose The paper aims to present a literary itinerary inspired in Julio Dinis’ novel An English Family (Uma Família Inglesa) through a comparative analysis of the places identified in the novel and the touristic attraction proposed by Visit Porto website. This novel is representative of the cultural identity and society of Porto city in the 19th century. Developing an itinerary based on this novel can facilitate the reading and understanding of the historical and cultural development of Porto. Design/methodology/approach This case study is based on the reading of the Julio Dinis’ novel An English Family (Uma Família Inglesa), whose storyline takes place in Porto city, Portugal in the 19th century. It used QGIS v. 3.12 software, a geographical information system to identify the places, to produce the maps and to create the itinerary. Findings The comparison between the places identified in the novel and the tourist attraction in Visit Porto website revealed that only 6 points in the novel are referenced on Visit Porto website. These points correspond to the ones in the historical city centre of Porto. However, the creation of an itinerary that brings together all the points mentioned by Julio Dinis in his novel, will allow the development of a new touristic itinerary, alternative to existing itineraries in the city and that can be seen as a distinguish offer that allows a different view of the urban space of Porto. Research limitations/implications There are some limitations to this study that can be highlighted. First, it was difficult to find the correct location of some points identified in the novel, due to difficulty of finding historical maps with quality of the data. At the same time, as tourist information is dispersed by several sources, and most of those data is not georeferenced, it was time consuming the integration of all the information in the same geodatabase. The choice of the shortest path can also be considered as a limitation, rather than the route followed by the author in the novel, but geographic information systems operates on spatial and temporal scale, which can present a limitation in tourism analysis. In the case of this project, we have chosen the shortest path, assuming that tourist would prefer that. Originality/value This research allowed to address two areas of knowledge that are emerging in the study of urban centres as tourist areas: the use of GIS and literary tourism. Despite the fact that there are already articles on this subject, the originality focuses on the approach made around one of the greatest writers of Portugal in the 19th century, allowing to present a tourist itinerary about one of his literary works, and the comparison made between the places identified in the novel and the tourist points identified on the Visit Porto website.

“…The Tambunan site was recorded and megalithic stones were mapped. Then, least-cost path analysis (LCPA) in GIS was used to identify cost-effective and sloping routes to produce heritage trails [14]. An integrated GIS system for the organization and planning of two cultural routes in Chios Island, Greece based on in-situ observations and the study of the corresponding spatial and legal framework is presented in [15].…”

This paper presents a holistic guiding methodology for the development of a geospatial tool to be used for the documentation, planning, smart management and dissemination of a country’s network of historic hiking trails. To deal with the challenges and to ensure the sustainability of a historic site, geospatial documentation merging authoritative and crowdsourced data and a WebGIS-based spatial analysis is necessary. Geospatial data collection should include professional field surveys, professional and crowdsourced photographic documentation and video recording of the existing historic walking/hiking trails. A geodatabase, structured using relational model technology, including vector spatial entities (feature classes), mosaics (raster) and tabulated data (geodatabase tables), should be developed on a commercial or open platform; in this case, the ArcGIS Pro is used. Entities with embedded descriptive information and metadata for the technical, legal, historical, and administrative context may then be created. An object-oriented data model is needed to connect spatial and descriptive information. Spatial and descriptive queries or correlations between attribute fields of spatial entities must be enabled for specialized information retrieval by either experts or users. Next, a web GIS application to present the developed geodatabase in a visually appealing and informative way is created. It should integrate 2D maps with built-in tools and should support advanced functionalities, such as: (i) pop-ups that display brief information and images about specific spots along the trails; (ii) dynamic visualization of the vertical profile of each trail; (iii) multimedia information about landmarks, natural features and scenic viewpoints. Finally, the tool includes a feedback service and continuous efficiency monitoring and assessment, and enables adjustments, if and where needed. The tool is tested and used for 10 historical walking/hiking trails of the archaeological and Holy Site of Meteora, Central Greece. This is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The network, with a total length of 35 km, leads to six monasteries, still active since the 12th century, passing by gigantic rocks and beautiful natural landscapes. The site is famous globally and the greater area is continuously overcrowded with visitors. The tool is anticipated to be used for the documentation and management of the whole walking/hiking historic trail network of Greece in the future.
