Cultural Mapping 4.0 as a tool for visualizing cultural perceptions of a tourist destination – Lake Constance Case Study
- The present study uses a combination of digital cultural mapping, participatory mapping, and story maps (coined as Cultural Mapping 4.0) to visualise the Lake Constance region’s culture and to analyse its tourists’ perceptions of its cultural identity. In addition, the spatiotemporally varying culture of the Lake Constance region, how it is perceived by tourists, and the mobility patterns resulting from tourism were investigated. The results indicate that tourists perceive the culture of the Lake Constance region to be synonymous with that of the greater Lake Constance region, and that its cultural identity is a weaker motivator for travel than its nature. The study demonstrates that Cultural Mapping 4.0 makes it possible to deal with tourism related issues from both a scientific and a practical perspective.
