• Resumen

  • This paper provides an overview and discussion of the methodologies used in measuring the impact of tourism. The Danish LINE model is presented, together with the tourism sub-model. The LINE model is an inter-regional macro-economic model describing the economy of 275 Danish municipalities. The tourism sub-model is an integrated part of the LINE model, in which tourism data are built as a part of private consumption. The advantage of building the tourism model within the framework of the inter-regional macro-economic model is that many regional economic indicators can be shown from the impact analysis. Regional tourism demand and the economic consequences are presented as the results of modelling.
