Travel Survey of Residents of Canada, 2006: Visit File, July

The Travel Survey of Residents of Canada 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）是用于衡量加拿大旅游业规模与发展现状的核心数据来源之一。该调查旨在调研国内旅行的规模、特征与经济影响。自2005年初起，本调查取代了原加拿大旅行调查（Canada Travel Survey, CTS），并从需求端视角测算加拿大国内旅行的规模。

本次调查的目标包括：为加拿大居民的国内旅行提供按出行出发地、目的地、时长、住宿类型、出行目的、交通方式等维度划分的旅行规模与开支数据；提供旅行参与率相关信息，并刻画旅行者与非旅行者的社会人口学特征画像。

基于调查估算结果，可在全国、省级及旅游区域层面（精度各有不同）开展季度分析，分析维度涵盖：加拿大居民以加拿大境内为目的地的当日往返与过夜旅行总规模、加拿大境内当日往返与过夜到访量、旅行主要目的/出行核心活动、加拿大居民在境内开展的当日往返与过夜旅行的总开支及按开支类别划分的细分开支、出行所使用的主要/其他交通方式、加拿大境内各到访地点的单人到访量、家庭到访量及总开支与按开支类别划分的细分开支、加拿大境内各到访地点的总人夜数与团队夜数（按住宿类型划分）、旅行套餐使用情况及相关开支、长途大巴/其他有组织观光游览的使用情况、付款来源（家庭、政府、私营雇主）、参与/未参与旅行的成年人的人口统计学特征、旅行团队构成。

本次调查包含三份数据文件：旅行文件（Trip File）、到访文件（Visit File）与个人文件（Person File）。
