Outline of Final Research Achievements

The results of this research are as follows.
1. Long-lasting impact of large-scale tourism events: It was confirmed that the continuous holding of large-scale events has a large spatial effect and the effect lasts for a long time.　　　　2. Authoring of two GIS skill guidebooks: The research led to the creation of two guidebooks that explain GIS(Geographic Information System) skills. These guidebooks provide valuable resources for individuals interested in understanding and applying GIS technology.　　　3. Code sharing for data collection and paper publication: The research involved the public release of the code used for data collection, enabling other researchers and interested individuals to utilize it. 　　　4. Future challenges: On the other hand, in image analysis, there were significant biases in the images used for publication, and problems remained in generalization.
