Category: Tourism
A Tourism Satellite Account (TSA) provides an economic measure of the importance of tourism in terms of expenditures, GDP and employment for a given country. It integrates in a single format data about the supply and use of tourism-related goods and services, and it provides a summary measure of the contribution tourism makes to production and employment. It permits a comparison of tourism with other industries since the concepts and methods used are based on the System of National Accounts. http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/product?code=KS-RA-09-021&mode=view
