• Resumen

  • This article presents a mathematical model for analyzing the degree of attractiveness of tourist attractions displayed on a tourist brochure. The sites are related to several competitive tourist destinations and represent natural, cultural, and other artificial resources. Then, a mathematical formula is proposed for the evaluation of a tourist site's utility. Finally, the mathematical model is applied to real data.
