TOURISM: SUBJECT GUIDE:
STATISTICAL SOURCES:
Tourism Statistical Sources in Print and On the Internet


This section of Statistical Sources of the Tourism Subject Guide for
Tourism is not limited to sources of data, but also holds sources that
discuss the roles of statistics in tourism and methods of obtaining
statistics for tourism research. This guide is very selective in both
general statistical sources for tourism and in the geographical localities
covered for examples of geolocal statistical information sources. The
goal is to provide ideas of the types of tourism data sources that exist
rather than a definitive listing of all sources, an impossible task.
