Abstract

    Graphical display of human phenomena, as a model a model to explore areas for spatial analysis, can portray the spatial distribution of geographical phenomena. In this regard, geostatistics and modeling can help estimate the distribution of graphic representation.The research is analytical and comparative approach. Twenty villages were used with tourist arrival statistics from April 1389 to April 1390 for estimating arrival zoning area in terms of tourism. Also, the technique of radial basis function (RBF) with five models was used for zoning.Mutual assessment models was used to assess the interaction of the semivariogram.Theresults indicated that Spline model with the coefficient of determination 0/77 and RMS = 19 is chosen as the best model for zoning. The results show 73 villages of Ramsar per year between 1000 and 1500, 46 villages between 1500 and 2000 and 42 villages between 500 and 1, 000 can absorb tourists located in the north of the city. The highest estimate tourist attraction is allocated to 2 the villages (Javaherdeh and Janet roudbar) with 4,000 to 5,000 tourists, respectively. The results indicated that the west city of Ramsar has a high potential for attracting tourists.
