Abstract: In order to overcome the problems of low coverage and high cost in traditional route selection methods for scenic spots, this paper proposes a new route selection method for scenic spots based on GIS spatial model. In the GIS spatial model, the weight scores of influencing factors are calculated. According to the weight calculation results, the weight values of various influencing factors are jointly superimposed on the grid of the GIS spatial model, the cumulative value of each grid is calculated, and then the weighted distance function of the scenic sightseeing route selection is established, to calculate the minimum distance from the grid to the scenic spot, so as to complete the route selection for scenic sightseeing. The experimental results show that the proposed method can improve the coverage of route selection and reduce the cost of route selection and the maximum coverage of route selection reaches 98%.

Keywords: GIS spatial model; sightseeing and tourism; route selection method; weighted distance function.
