Application of spatial changes in the creation of tourist routes

Geographical information systems are closely linked to the concept of spatial tourism. Spatial tourism is seen as an alternative activity that organizes and digitizes environmental data. Spatial change tourism uses old and current maps, site plans, visual aids, and descriptions of objects to show the change in the area under analysis by comparison. This process creates the preconditions for the spatialization of tourist routes. First, an analysis of the selected environment (using georeferencing tools); systematization and purification of the information on the cultural objects; followed by the selection of professional photographs revealing the appearance of the objects (which can be used to compare the aesthetic condition of the objects in the past and the present); and then the creation of an overall image, reflecting the design, the descriptive styles of the descriptions, the photographs, and the purposeful positioning of objects. The spatial change digital maps created are seen as new tourism products that can generate additional revenue for service providers and allow tourists to travel individually and explore cultural and natural sites and join sustainable tourism development. The spatial tourism products developed can be transferred to smart devices, allowing users of the service to easily explore and get to know the areas and appreciate the historical and contemporary changes that have taken place in the area
