Abstract
TFI= (N*100)/P where N= number of overnights and P = population. Period 2010. The population based Tourism Function index (overnights) represents a demand-oriented indicator. Generally, it can be stated that if there is a large number of overnights and few inhabitants, then the TFI will be high. In the central Alpine area (including the regions of South Tyrol, parts of Trentino, Vorarlberg, Tyrol, Salzburg, East Tyrol, parts of Kärnten, Eastern parts of CH and parts of Bavaria) the Population based TFI is almost homogeneous, with high values, while towards the eastern part of the Alps the figures tend to decrease and to the west they appear to be scattered and heterogeneous. Austria, Germany and Italy are the countries where the highest Population based TFI (overnights) is registered, amounting respectively to 1,820, 1,587 and 1,154. The NUTS2 regions with the highest TFI indicator are the Autonomous Province of Bolzano (I), Tyrol and Salzburg (A). Concerning the French department data, the NUTS3 departments bordering with Italy and particularly Alpes-de-Haute-Provence and Savoie show higher tourism intensity than those in the west of the Alpine region.
