Abstract

The popularisation and sophistication of wine tourism has transformed many rural regions around the globe. Understanding land cover and land use in the context of winescapes is critical, as well as mapping the development of tourism services and infrastructure. Geotechnology offers a number of tools to manage wine tourism destinations. Remote sensing and GIS data are used to analyse the early stages of tourism development in São Joaquim, Brazil, and how its new economic dynamics have evolved driven by the production of high-altitude wines and wine tourism. A cultural landscape analysis provides an understanding of the processes of economic activities, particularly considering the distinct geophysical landforms of the study area. We identify land cover and the classification of land use using primary and secondary data. QGIS software was used for the intersection between data from satellite imagens processing and secondary data. The results show that remote sensing and the use of GIS were practical resources in carrying out a preliminary analysis of cultural landscapes, especially winescapes, providing a database useful in territorial planning. The information gathered by this methodology identifies problems, enables planning the expansion of cultivation, and can be used to manage native vegetation areas and built-up areas. The combined findings provide support for discussing the relationship between winescapes, land use and cover, and their relationship to tourism. The database developed supports territorial planning in the context of wine tourism regions, and is a replicable asset for other rural areas worldwide. The information also supports the establishing of a geographical indication of origin for high altitude wines.

摘要

葡萄酒旅游的普及和成熟已经改变了全球许多农村地区。了解葡萄酒景观背景下的土地覆盖和土地利用以及绘制旅游服务和基础设施的发展图至关重要。Geotechnology 提供了许多工具来管理葡萄酒旅游目的地。遥感和 GIS 数据用于分析巴西圣若阿金旅游业发展的早期阶段，以及其新的经济动态如何在高海拔葡萄酒生产和葡萄酒旅游业的推动下演变。文化景观分析提供了对经济活动过程的理解，特别是考虑到研究区域独特的地球物理地貌。我们使用一手和二手数据确定土地覆盖和土地利用分类。QGIS软件用于卫星图像处理数据与二手数据的交集。结果表明，遥感和 GIS 的使用是对文化景观（尤其是葡萄酒景观）进行初步分析的实用资源，为领土规划提供了有用的数据库。通过这种方法收集的信息可以识别问题，规划扩大种植，并可用于管理原生植被区和建成区。综合调查结果为讨论葡萄酒景观、土地利用和覆盖之间的关系以及它们与旅游业的关系提供了支持。开发的数据库支持葡萄酒旅游区背景下的领土规划，是全球其他农村地区可复制的资产。
