An in-depth analysis of four dimensions has been summarized by means of three simple bi-dimensional typologies (weighted intensity and balance, weighted intensity and concentration per area, weighted intensity and average distance). They have been developed by classification of one of the most representative indexes for each individual dimension.
Typology of regions based on travel intensity and balance
These typologies present the division, carried out on the basis of travel intensity and travel balance. Nine basic types of regions are established, classified into units featuring intensive, moderate and weak travel flows, and, simultaneously – receiver, sender and balanced units.
When we combine intensity with concentration of tourism flows, we find these two dimensions could cover a group of regions ranging from the highly intensive focused to the non-intensive universal
