Abstract

Tourism resources exploration potential evaluation can be defined as the capacity of tourism resources to develop tourism industry and to gain economic, social and environmental benefits. The evaluation of tourism resources exploration potential involves not only the value of tourism resources themselves, but also environment conditions and development benefits which are necessary for the tourism resources development.Ot the basis of the combination of AHP approach and Grey Theory, this article tries to innovate the evaluation approach of tourism resources exploration potential by applying the multi-level grey approach. In the empirical study, Laozi Mountain Tourism Attraction is taken as an example.First, key factors which have important influence on tourism resources are analyzed and then evaluation index system of tourism resources exploration potential is established. It consists of three hierarchies, and is composed of 12 indexes. Second, the tourism resources exploration potential of the above six scenic spots in Laozi Mountain Tourism Attraction are evaluated and sorted based on the multi-level grey approach. The study shows that the result of the multi-level grey evaluation of tourism resources exploration potential is objective and reliable; it doesn't require a large sample and is very effective to fill in the gaps such as inexact and incomplete evaluation information. In addition, this paper applies multi-level grey approach in the evaluation of tourism resources and makes a comparative analysis between the evaluation result of tourism resources and that of tourism resources exploration potential. The study indicates that there is difference between them, high rating tourism resources does not mean prospective exploration potential. The evaluation of tourism resources exploration potential is more comprehensive and is helpful to resolve the conflict between tourism resources rating and tourism resources exploration potential.
