Mapping the potential aggregation values of ecotourism landscapes from stakeholder survey, structural equation modeling and GIS: Case study of Moc Chau site, Vietnam.

The primary aim of this study is to propose a potential landscape value assessment from different dimensions rather than the traditional approach of a composite indicator. The method used in this study is the combination of data collection from stakeholder survey, score measurement for landscape val...
