Abstract In this research, a methodology for the analysis of accessibility conditions for people with physical disabilities was developed. The analysis is based on an assessment of the sidewalk network in two tourist areas located in Maspalomas Costa Canaria (Gran Canaria, Spain). ArcMap's Network Analyst was used, and Spanish regulations on accessibility in urbanized public spaces, as well as the points of origin (tourist accommodation, bus stops and reserved parking lots for people with reduced mobility) and destination (access points to the beach and other tourist elements, some of them with heritage value) for typical users were considered. After application of the methodology, a set of potential routes were obtained. The results reveal deficient walkability, with breaks in the accessibility chain in both study areas. It is concluded that new measures to improve accessibility are required which can be used as a basis for the development of new tourist products to reinforce the competitiveness of the tourist destination.

评估旅游景点的物理可达性条件。Maspalomas Costa Canaria 市区(西班牙大加那利岛)的案例

摘要 在这项研究中,开发了一种分析身体残疾人士无障碍条件的方法。该分析基于对位于 Maspalomas Costa Canaria(西班牙大加那利岛)的两个旅游区的人行道网络的评估。使用 ArcMap 的网络分析器,西班牙关于城市化公共空间可达性的规定,以及起点(旅游住宿、巴士站和为行动不便人士预留的停车场)和目的地(通往海滩和其他旅游景点的入口)元素,其中一些具有遗产价值)为典型用户考虑。应用该方法后,获得了一组潜在的路线。结果显示步行性不足,两个研究区域的可达性链都出现断裂。
