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

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。该调查旨在测算国内旅行的规模、特征及经济影响。自2005年初起，本调查取代了原《加拿大旅行调查》（Canada Travel Survey, CTS）。

本调查从需求端衡量加拿大国内旅行的规模，其目标包括：
1. 提供加拿大居民按旅行出发地、目的地、时长、住宿类型、旅行目的、交通方式等维度划分的旅行人次与支出信息；
2. 统计旅行参与率，并构建旅行者与非旅行者的社会人口学画像。

依托调查生成的估算结果，可按国家、省级及旅游区域层级（精度水平各有差异）开展季度分析，覆盖以下维度：
- 加拿大居民在加拿大境内开展的当日往返与过夜旅行总规模（含当日往返到访与过夜到访）
- 旅行主要目的/途中核心活动
- 加拿大居民在加拿大境内开展的当日往返与过夜旅行的总支出及分类支出
- 旅行中使用的主要/其他交通方式
- 加拿大境内各到访地点的单人到访人次、家庭到访人次、总支出及分类支出
- 加拿大境内各到访地点的单人住宿夜数与旅行团住宿夜数（按住宿类型细分）
- 旅行套餐使用情况与关联支出，以及旅游大巴/其他有导游团队游的使用情况
- 支付来源（家庭、政府、私人雇主）
- 参与/未参与旅行的成年人的人口统计学特征
- 旅行团组成

本数据集包含三个文件：旅行档案（Trip File）、到访档案（Visit File）与个人档案（Person File）。
