Travel Survey of Residents of Canada, 2009: Visit File, August

The Travel Survey of Residents of Canada (TSRC) is a major source of data used to measure the size and status of Canada's tourism industry. It was developed to mesure the volume, the characteristics and the economic impact of domestic travel. Since the beginning of 2005 this survey replaces the Canada Travel Survey (CTS). It measures the size of domestic travel in Canada from the demand side. The objectives of the survey are to provide information about the volume of trips and expenditures for Canadian residents by trip origin, destination, duration, type of accommodation used, trip reason, mode of travel, etc.; to provide information on travel incidence and to provide the socio-demographic profile of travellers and non-travellers. Estimates allow quarterly analysis at the national, provincial and tourism region level (with varying degrees of precision) on: total volume of same-day and overnight trips taken by the residents of Canada with destinations in Canada same-day and overnight visits in Canada main purpose of the trip/key activities on trip spending on same-day and overnight trips taken in Canada by Canadian residents in total and by category of expenditure modes of transportation (main/other) used on the trip person-visits, household-visits, spending in total and by expense category for each location visited in Canada person- and party-nights spent in each location visited in Canada, in total and by type of accommodation used use of travel packages and associated spending and use of motor coach/other guided tours source of payment (household, government, private employer) demographics of adults that took or did not take trips travel party composition There are three files for this survey - Trip File, Visit File, and Person File.

加拿大居民旅行调查（Travel Survey of Residents of Canada，TSRC）是衡量加拿大旅游业规模与发展现状的核心数据来源。该调查旨在核算国内旅游的总规模、特征及经济影响。自2005年初起，该调查取代了原加拿大旅行调查（Canada Travel Survey，CTS）。

本次调查从需求端视角切入，衡量加拿大国内旅游的整体规模。其核心目标包括：为加拿大居民的国内旅行提供多维度信息，涵盖出行总次数与开支情况，统计维度涉及出行起点、目的地、时长、入住住宿类型、出行目的、交通方式等；提供旅游参与率相关信息，并刻画旅行者与非旅行者的社会人口学特征。

基于该调查的统计估算结果，可在国家级、省级及旅游区域层面（精度存在差异）开展季度分析，具体涵盖以下内容：以加拿大国内为目的地的加拿大居民当日往返及过夜出行总规模；加拿大境内的当日往返及过夜到访人次；出行主要目的与行程核心活动；加拿大居民在加拿大境内开展的当日往返及过夜出行的总开支及按开支类别划分的开支情况；行程中使用的交通方式（主要/其他方式）；加拿大境内各到访地点的个人到访次数、家庭到访次数、总开支及按开支类别划分的开支；加拿大境内各到访地点的个人停留夜数及旅行团停留夜数，按入住住宿类型分类统计；旅行套餐使用情况及相关开支，以及旅游大巴/其他导游带队旅游团的使用情况；支付来源（家庭、政府、私人雇主）；参与或未参与出行的成年人的人口统计学特征；旅行团人员构成。

本次调查包含三类数据集文件：出行文件（Trip File）、到访文件（Visit File）与个人文件（Person File）。加拿大居民旅行调查是劳动力调查（Labour Force Survey，LFS）的独立补充模块。
