Description

Research on economic revitalization of regions in danger of extinction The focus is on establishing a self-reliant regional economic ecosystem and promoting job creation and population influx. Technology related to the tourism industry can be applied in various ways, such as smart tourism that leverages the unique characteristics of the region, personalized travel, and digital marketing. The following specific technologies and measures are included. This is a system that recommends customized tour courses to tourists and links them with local accommodation and activity bookings through a smart tourism platform based on big data and AI. It enhances tourist convenience and satisfaction by utilizing location-based services (GPS) and IoT technology. As a result, it suggests travel routes and estimated travel times in real time and contributes to the local economy by collaborating with local small business owners to stimulate consumption. By applying VR/AR technology, we develop content that allows for a vivid experience of the region's history, cultural heritage, and natural landscapes, and provide realistic tourism experiences during tours. Through the utilization of these technologies, we offer differentiated experiences that leverage the region's unique culture and nature, thereby increasing tourist satisfaction and encouraging repeat visits. This is a contactless solution that enables tourists to travel independently and obtain information through digital guides, AR-based tourism information systems, and mobile apps. Its benefits include sustaining the tourism industry even during infectious disease outbreaks like COVID-19, and enhancing tourist convenience by expanding accessibility and information provision for various locations. It is a system that effectively promotes local tourist attractions and specialties through social media and AI-based targeted marketing technologies. Methods include promoting tourist destinations through influential travelers or influencers, or providing customized advertisements. The benefits include actively promoting the region's appeal to the outside world to encourage the influx of new tourists and facilitating the spread of positive word-of-mouth through social media. This is a technology related to eco-tourism aimed at environmental protection and the sustainable utilization of local resources. It includes eco-friendly transportation that reduces carbon emissions, waste management systems for tourist destinations, and activities to protect local ecological resources. As a result, it enables the long-term preservation of local resources and attracts environmentally conscious tourists by branding with an eco-friendly image. It operates an integrated ticketing system that allows access to various local attractions and facilities with a single ticket, and provides a payment platform that links this system to payment systems for small businesses. The benefits include improved accessibility for tourists and increased consumption within the local economy by connecting with various small local shops. It is an AI-based system that analyzes tourist demand to predict visitor numbers for specific periods and applies this to the management of accommodation and transportation demand. Consequently, it effectively manages demand during peak and off-peak seasons to resolve issues of oversupply or shortage of tourism resources, contributing to economic revitalization and maintaining visitor satisfaction.
