Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine as tourism statistical data of human mobility tracks by Global Positioning System (GPS). We study the trajectory of about 800,000 anonymized cell phone users whose position is tracked for a one-year period. The main results of this study are that number of logger in Ishikawa pref. and Kaga city area and that day's trip tourists behavior. That behavior is visit frequency, sojourn time and visiting spot. These details are hard to investigate existing statistics. We think that it is available to some extent by planning adjustment with other survey data.
