1. 1. Environmental Trail Suitability in the Proposed Bästeträsk National Park, Gotland : A Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis Using GIS

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och industriell teknik

   Author : Jan Palyza; [2023]
   Keywords : Bästeträsk; Gotland; Nature-Based Tourism; National Park; Spatial Tourism Planning; Sustainable Destination Development; Environmental Trail Suitability; Volunteered Geographic Data; Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis;

   Abstract : This master’s thesis determines trail suitability in the context of environmental area sensitivity, closely focusing on a proposed Bästeträsk National Park, Gotland, Sweden. The current relative low usage of the area is expected to significantly increase its tourism flow once the proposed national park is established, as the demand for nature-based tourism and recreation is growing.

   Abstract : Due to precipitation poor winters and springs and over-exploitation of groundwater reserves during the summer months as a consequence of tourism, the island of Gotland has experienced fresh water shortages during recent years which has led to harsh restrictions in the use of municipal water. In order to find a solution to the islands fresh water problems, the region of Gotland and the Swedish Environmental Institute (IVL) have initiated a project in which the southernmost part of Gotland, Storsudret, will be used as a test site for new methods of sustainable freshwater storage and extraction methods.
