中文摘要：

选取西安国内游客为研究样本，运用合图法（co—plot）综合游客的特性和游客造访的景点（区）特征对西安旅游资源进行分类，结果发现西安旅游资源划分成四大类，属于同一类的旅游资源在游客旅行特征和资源特性方面存在共性，各类之间的旅游资源在此两方面存在差异，并进一步构建了西安的游客旅游空间模型。通过研究可以得出合图法在图形展示上具有传统多元统计方法不具有的优势，同时，基于游客和资源的综合分析为旅游资源分类和旅游空间模型的认识提出了新的方法和思路。

英文摘要：

Taking Xi＇ an domestic visitors as the research object in this paper, a new way to classify tourism attractions is given based on the examination of the trip characteristics of tourists and the attractions that they visit by using a new method co-plot. The results of the statistical analysis show that Xi＇ an＇ s tourist attractions can be categorized into four distinct groups and that there is a tendency of spatial concentration among sights belonging to the same group but there are differences between the four groups in the aspect of trip characteristics of tourists and the attractions itself. From the study it also can be found that co-plot is more useful for visual analysis of data matrices than the traditional multivariate analysis method, and based on the synthesis of the trip characteristics of tourists and the attractions that they visit, it may be a new way of the classification of tourism attractions.
