Abstract

Korunan alanlar, açık hava rekreasyonu ve doğaya dayalı turizm için başlıca destinasyonlar haline gelmiştir. Korunan alanların sürdürülebilir ve etkin yönetimi için rekreasyonel aktivitelerin konumsal ve zamansal verilerine ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Günümüzde kitle kaynaklı platformlardan elde edilen gönüllü coğrafi bilgi, doğa temelli rekreasyonel aktivitelerin zamansal ve konumsal analizi için kullanılmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, Küresel Navigasyon Uydu Sistemleri (GNSS) tabanlı gönüllü coğrafi bilgiler aracılığıyla Dilek Yarımadası’ndaki doğa temelli rekreasyonel aktivitelerin konumsal modellerinin haritalanması amaçlanmıştır. Wikiloc’tan elde edilen 653 adet doğa yürüyüşü, 59 adet dağ bisikleti ve 22 adet yol bisikleti aktivitesinin GNSS izleri kullanılarak Dilek Yarımadası’nın rekreasyonel kullanımı analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonuçları, GNSS tabanlı gönüllü coğrafi bilgilerin, doğa temelli rekreasyonel aktivitelerin haritalanmasında etkili bir araç olduğunu ve geleneksel veri kaynaklarına alternatif veya tamamlayıcı bir kaynak olarak kullanılabileceğini göstermiştir.

Mapping nature-based recreational activities in the Dilek Peninsula using volunteered geographic information

Abstract

Protected areas have become prime destinations for outdoor recreation and nature-based tourism. Spatial and temporal data of recreational activities are needed for sustainable and effective management of protected areas. Today, voluntary geographical information obtained from crowdsourcing platforms is used for temporal and spatial analysis of nature-based recreational activities. The aim of this study is to map the spatial patterns of nature-based recreational activities in the Dilek Peninsula through Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS based voluntary geographical information. The recreational use of Dilek Peninsula was analyzed using GNSS traces of 653 hiking, 59 mountain biking and 22 road cycling activities obtained from the Wikiloc. The results of the study showed that GNSS-based voluntary geographic information is an effective tool for mapping nature-based recreational activities and can be used as an alternative or complementary source to traditional data sources.
