Abstract

Goal. The purpose of this paper is to create a tourist map and develop of new tourist routes of the Kherson region using cartographic materials by means of geographic information system ArcGIS 10.8. Method. The main stages of creating a tourist map of the Kherson region are: search and analysis of input data; download raster administrative-territorial map into the ArcGIS 10.8; geo-referencing administrative-territorial map; vectorization of the main objects of the map, in particular: administrative boundaries of the region and districts, settlements, roads and railways, stations, hydrography, etc.; collecting of information about tourist sites in the region; location of tourist objects on the Kherson region electronic map; entering information about tourist objects into the attribute tables of the thematic layers of the map; development of tourist routes and drawing them on an electronic tourist map; analysis of the created tourist map.

Scientific novelty. The novelty of the research work lies in the development of new excursion tourist routes and tourist objects, as well as their visualization on the created electronic tourist map of the Kherson region using GIS technologies. Practical value. The results of the research can be used for tourism purposes to provide the population with the latest high-quality survey and educational cartographic materials, including both traditional maps, cartograms, booklets, and digital or electronic maps, web applications, created using the latest digital and GIS technologies, for printing tourist cartographic products, as well as for popularizing the tourist and recreational potential of the Kherson region.
