“…Urban spatial analysis is a proven tool for the diagnosis of the patterns of behaviour of tourist models, although its use is not very common in the scientific literature (good recent examples can be however found in [37,[52][53][54][55][56]). The P2P real estate tourist market makes very selective use of the cities [51], and is usually developed through spatiotemporal patterns that can be parameterized and measured.…”

Globalization and the development of the so-called "collaborative economies" has coincided with an important transformation of mass tourism in the last decades. This phenomenon has been accentuated enormously in many European cities in recent years, generating a new P2P tourist model. The situation is having a strong social impact on the urban transformation of cities, and its characteristics are closely related to real estate speculative movements. In this sense, the analysis of urban transformation can offer interesting conclusions about the sustainability of these new tourist models in large touristic cities. In this article, we will analyse the effect associated with of so-called phenomena of "tourist flats" from the Airbnb portal in the cities of Madrid, Barcelona, and Palma de Mallorca. Through the use of GIS indicators and geostatistic analysis of spatial correlation, the current incidence of this phenomenon in these cities, and possible future scenarios of maintaining the current trend, will be evaluated and discussed. The results obtained show worrying indicators in relation to the economic and social sustainability of the current urban-tourist model created in the city which are linked to gentrification processes.

“…From another point of view, Quesada-Pineda et al ( 2017) stated that information systems have replaced the old traditional systems, especially in the field of marketing, marketing management and directed marketing through the possibility of providing information after it was data, and this matter was through the hardware and software (devices and programs) that the organization adopted to deal with the raw data that results from e-marketing operations. While Albuquerque et al (2018) emphasized that hardware, software (devices and programs), processes and the method of use, in addition to the users (people), contributed to providing a framework linking marketing operations with information systems services based on the marketing management that facilitates the search for new applications and opportunities to redesign marketing operations and other managerial processes in a manner that is more innovative using modern information technology. Vyas et al (2014) stated that the concept of MIS in the marketing field is crucial in defining how IT is employed in that field.…”

The study aimed to highlight the role of management information system (MIS) and its components in improving the effectiveness and efficiency of e-marketing strategies in telecommunications companies in Jordan. By relying on the quantitative methodology and by dealing with the questionnaire as a research tool, 131 individuals from the marketing departments in the organizations under study responded, and after the analysis, the study demonstrated an impact of MIS and its components on e-marketing strategies by influencing how and the mechanism of data processing and presentation as information that contributes to making the most appropriate marketing decision. The study also proved that all components of MIS have an impact on e-marketing strategies, most of which were “human resources” or people, which proved that the efficiency of individuals and their ability to deal with technology carries significant effect on the effectiveness of MIS in managing and organizing e-marketing strategies. The study recommends the necessity to focus on human resources with STEM skills, namely science, technology, engineering, and mathematics in order to ensure the best outcomes of MIS.

Research in the field of sustainable tourism is increasingly important due to significant growth in tourism industries and the unsustainable impacts incurred. Innovation in sustainable tourism studies is required to meet a number of challenges including socio-ecological impacts; the critical turn in tourism research; and the growth of ICTs, mobile technologies and big data analytics. These shifts in particular are transforming the field and creating new research opportunities. This paper seeks to identify potential new methodological areas of application to sustainable tourism studies for both quantitative and qualitative methods. A range of methods are reviewed, focusing on big data (e.g., mobile device signaling, GPS, social media and search engine data) that elucidates wider patterns of tourist movement, as applied to forecasting travel demands and sustainable management of a destination. Three novel 'small data' methods are also discussed, comprising visual methods, autoethnography, and qualitative GIS, that provide deeper, contextual insights into the drivers, dynamics and impacts of sustainable tourism. We consider how expansive qualitative methodologies might yield potentially important insights concealed by existing methodologies. Furthermore, we argue that combined big data and small data approaches can address methodological imbalance and generate mutually reinforcing insights at a number of levels.
