Canadian Travel Survey, 1997: Trip Data

The Canadian Travel Survey (CTS) is a major source of data used to measure the size and status of Canada's tourism industry. It was developed to measure the volume, characteristics and economic impact of domestic travel. It gathers data on more than 30 variables, including socio-economic profiles, trip characteristics, and expenditures. The CTS is conducted by Statistics Canada, as a supplement of the Labour Force Survey (LFS: Survey Number 3701), with the cooperation and support of the Canadian Tourism Commission (CTC) and ten provincial governments. The main users of the survey data are the CTC, the provinces, and tourism boards. Other users include the media, businesses, consultants and researchers. These files contain records which relate to the activities of Canadians travelling in Canada; origin and destination; volumes; nights away from home; length of stay; type of transportation; purpose of trip; accommodation used; expenditures by categories; and demographic characteristics. Included are the complete Canada microdata file on person-trips, household trips, person-nights, person and reallocated expenditures.加拿大旅行调查（Canadian Travel Survey，以下简称CTS）是衡量加拿大旅游业规模与发展现状的核心数据来源。该调查旨在测算境内旅行的规模、特征及经济影响，共收集超过30项变量的数据，涵盖社会经济特征概况、旅行相关属性以及旅行支出等维度。CTS由加拿大统计局牵头开展，作为劳动力调查（Labour Force Survey，以下简称LFS，调查编号3701）的补充项目，同时获得加拿大旅游委员会（Canadian Tourism Commission，以下简称CTC）与十个省级政府的合作支持。该调查数据的核心使用者包括加拿大旅游委员会、各省级政府以及各级旅游管理机构，其他使用者则涵盖媒体、企业、咨询机构与研究人员。本次提供的数据集文件包含加拿大人在加拿大境内旅行的全量活动记录，具体涉及旅行起止地、出行规模、在外过夜时长、停留时长、交通方式、旅行目的、住宿类型、分类支出以及人口统计特征等内容。数据集还包含完整的加拿大境内旅行微观数据文件，涵盖个人旅行、家庭旅行、个人过夜数、个人支出及再分配支出等细分数据。
