Determining the economic impact of a specific geocaching form of tourism for a given area
Original language description
This paper aims to determine the economic impact of geocaching tourism for a specific geographically defined area. Geocaching is a specific form of tourism. The basic premise of geocaching is to search for hidden geocaches (containers) located in publicly accessible areas using geolocation devices and to publish a log in an online logbook for each geocache found. The paper uses these logs to conduct quantitative research for game participants in a given geographical area, creating an accurate map of how game participants spend time with respect to their expenses related to participation in the game. It determines the exact expenses of tourism participants arising in connection with their participation in a geocaching game in a given area. Expenses that are identified in this way represent the direct economic impact for the given area arising from the geocaching game. This paper also determines the magnitude of multiplier effects of the realized expenditures of participants in a geocaching game using
