Background of the Study
Big data analytics has emerged as a transformative tool across various sectors, enabling the analysis of large datasets to generate actionable insights. In tourism, big data analytics facilitates demand forecasting by analyzing patterns, traveler behaviors, and market trends. For a destination like Bauchi State, home to attractions such as the Yankari Game Reserve and the Sumu Wildlife Park, accurate demand forecasting is critical for optimizing resources, improving visitor experiences, and increasing revenue.
Globally, big data analytics is being applied to predict tourism demand, tailor marketing efforts, and enhance operational efficiency. In Bauchi State, however, the application of big data analytics in tourism remains limited. This study explores the potential of big data analytics to improve tourism demand forecasting, which could significantly enhance decision-making processes and the sustainability of tourism in the region.
Statement of the Problem
Despite Bauchi State's rich tourism resources, there is limited use of modern analytical tools to forecast tourism demand. This often leads to underutilization of facilities during low seasons and overcrowding during peak periods, resulting in suboptimal tourist experiences and economic inefficiencies. Furthermore, the lack of reliable data hinders long-term tourism planning. This study examines how big data analytics can address these issues and support the development of a robust tourism forecasting framework in Bauchi State.
