Analyzing accessibility of car campgrounds through road network structure software in Beijing.

The development of road trips and car campsites depends on the construction of road infrastructure. The development of road trips and car campsites is described as follows: • Since 2016, high-speed rail travel and road travel have become the mainstream, and people's travel patterns have undergone significant changes. • China's self-drive tour industry is growing steadily. In 2016, the number of self-drive tour employees reached 2.64 billion, up 12.8% year on year, accounting for 59.5% of the total domestic tourism. • Due to the differences in economic development, transportation infrastructure and tourist attractions in different regions, the proportion of self-drive trips ranged from 49 percent to 65 percent. Road trips in Beijing remained the most popular form of road trips, accounting for 84.32 percent of the total. • In September 2016, six national ministries and commissions jointly issued the Notice on Accelerating the Construction of Self-driving RV Camp [1]. The implementation of the paid leave system, the improvement of road infrastructure, the regulation of scenic spots and the regulation of market behavior have all promoted the significant expansion of motor campsites, thus promoting the development of leisure tourism in China. The development of self-driving tourism and automobile campgrounds depends on the construction of road infrastructure. In this study, we utilized aeronautical reconnaissance coverage geographic information system (ArcGIS), spatial analysis technology and accessibility model to quantitatively examine the accessibility and spatial pattern of automobile campgrounds in Beijing. Our findings reveal that Beijing's automobile campgrounds exhibit a circular distribution pattern, with decreasing accessibility from the center to the periphery areas. The overall accessibility maintains high-level road directivity, with an average travel time to automobile campgrounds ranging from 0.028 to 3.37 h. Access to automobile campgrounds is higher in the central and southern-central regions compared to the northwest and southwest regions, highlighting a highly unbalanced spatial pattern of accessibility. Finally, we provide suggestions for optimizing the accessibility of automobile campgrounds in Beijing based on our research. [Display omitted] [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
