The results revealed that the Motalleq Hot Spring, with a total score of 86, has the highest score among the eight selected springs. The Asbforoushan hot spring comes in second with 84 points, the Yel Sui hot spring comes in third with 82 points.

Geological diversity has created a new branch of the tourism industry called geotourism , where geological and geomorphological features are explored . The main focus of geotourism on geological elements includes two items, form and process . There is a set of geological forms and processes in places , which are called geosites . This has given rise to a new branch of tourism called geotourism , which examines places that have the ability to attract tourists and management aspects that can help the local community for economic development. In the first stage , it is very important to know the abilities and characteristics of the studied area . Scientific, tourism and educational evaluation of geosites in the region is the basis for optimal exploitation and sustainable development. In recent years, more attention has been paid to the Garmsar region, which has led to the development of geotourism. The impact of tourists and mines that have been created by humans, the Tastkan caves that have changed the strength of the salt caves, and also the role of natural factors, have all led to the environment's reaction

Geotourism is a form of tourism that causes the geographical growth and stability of the region, its environment, culture, historical and aesthetic heritage, and also improves the lives of the residents of that region. The purpose of this research is to analyze the geotourism potentials and geomorphological destinations of Khoi city using the Paulova and dynamic model. The dynamic model is estimated by the indicators of scientific value and surplus values of that geotourist place. In this competitiveness model, geotourism destinations and potentials are identified and competitiveness factors are determined. Based on Paulova's model, the results show that Khoi geotourism area with the highest score in the positive factors promoting the competitiveness of geotourist destinations includes natural wealth with a score of (8.5) and the highest value among the negative items of competitiveness is deficit. The budget and lack of skilled specialists with a score of (5) creates the most negative impact on attracting tourists in the region. Also, according to the results of the dynamic model, according to the examination of scientific and surplus values, according to the opinion of experts and tourists, the results showed The highest score in terms of the scientific value of diversity in geomorphological forms has a score of 4.23 among the experts, and among the experts, the highest score with a total score of 14.4 among the experts was calculated as the indicator of the possibility of organizing for some special cultural events. Therefore, it can be concluded that by evaluating and identifying the geotourism potentials and developing capabilities, it will lead to the development of the geotourism area of Khoy and attract tourists. Finally, it is suggested to use newer software such as artificial intelligence in future studies for a better investigation.

Tourism has various forms and types that are different according to environmental conditions. Geotourism is one of the sub-branches of tourism. Geotourism is one of the branches of sustainable tourism that focuses on the geological features and natural landscapes of a region. Geotourism is a form of tourism that causes the geographical growth and stability of the destination region, its environment, culture, historical and aesthetic heritage, and also improves the lives of the residents of that region. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the geotourism potential of Zanouzagh village in Tabriz using the Violet (National Park) model.

The case study is to identify areas from the virtual system. Therefore, it can be concluded that by identifying the geotourism potentials of Shabestar city and developing the capabilities, it will lead to the development of geotourism areas and tourist attraction.

Man-made relationship with nature creates geo-tourism. In geo-tourism, geomorphological phenomena prevail more than other geological phenomena. The audience is not only geomorphology and geology specialists and experts, but also ordinary tourists and nature enthusiasts. The purpose of this research is to evaluate and analyze the potentials of the geological and touristic destinations of Astara city (case study: Hiran Pass, Lawton Waterfall, Steel Lagoon). The studied methods are the Hadzik and Fiolet method. In the Hadzik model, the value and importance of each geo-tourist place in this method is estimated by scientific value indicators and the surplus values of that geo-tourist place. Based on the results of the scientific value of surplus and vulnerability according to the experts and visitors of Hiran Pass geotourist area, Laton Waterfall and Steel Lagoon, respectively, the values of (22.36), (48.29) and (69.51) were allocated to themselves. Based on this, the Hiran Pass geotourist area has a high and relatively good potential compared to the other two regions. The results of the Violet model also showed that based on the studied indicators, the geotourist area of Hiran Pass has the highest score and the Hiran Laton Cascade area is in the second place. and Talab Steel region were ranked third in terms of geo-tourist capability, so it can be concluded that the geo-tourist region of Hiran Garneh has more attraction power in terms of geo-tourist capability than the studied regions in the direction of geo-tourism development. Also, it is suggested that in future studies to identify pristine geo-tourist areas, studies are based on studies and online tourism.

Environmental risks are divided into two main groups: social risks and technological risks. Social risks originate directly from people's daily lives, and technological risks are risks that originate from human activities on the planet and inappropriate use of technology. The purpose of this research is to investigate and analyze the impact of environmental hazards in the development of geotourism in Ardabil province in Hir city. In the current research, the field, descriptive and analytical method has been used, and with the help of two statistical communities related to tourism, the domestic tourists who entered the city of Hir and the active officials of the region in the geotourism industry, the environmental hazards affecting the development of geotourism have been investigated. The results of the research showed that the probability of health and environmental risk from the point of view of travelers with a total score of 3.52 has the highest score among the threats to the development of geotourism in Hir region, which leads to the lack of attraction of tourism and ultimately the development of geotourism. has been in the region. Also, according to the authorities, the possibility of structural and functional risk with a total score of 3.24 has the most impact on the development of tourism in the studied area. Therefore, based on the results, it can be concluded that health and environmental infrastructure, as well as structure and function, should be developed in order to lead to the increasing progress of the geotourism industry in the coming years with welfare, economic, health, infrastructural and legal development. Based on the results, it is suggested to investigate the effects of natural factors in the development of geotourism in Hir city in future studies.

Geotourism or tourism has stated new ways to explain and explain the geosciences and know the natural resources of each region, which in addition to the educational and scientific role, causes the development of tourism in the region. Garmi city is one of the few regions that has three important tourism potentials: the potential of natural resources, the potential of historical monuments, and the potential of cultural factors, which with the investment and attention of the authorities to these potentials, can create employment and tourism industry in this city, and the correct application of this The potentials can cause the growth of Garami city. In this research, the geotourism capabilities of Garmi city have been investigated and evaluated using the Prolong model and the ecological model, which work methods of both models are qualitative. Based on the Pralong model and the results of this model in this research, Gilarlu Lake has the highest average tourism rating (0.51) due to its high scientific and economic-social quality and has the highest geo-tourism potential. . and Belenlu lagoon (0.30) have the lowest tourism rate among the geomorphological places in the study area in terms of the average rate of tourism. From the comparison of external beauty grade, scientific grade,

Today, geotourism and geosites are an important solution for economic development and one of the important ways of generating income for different regions and countries, which has been less addressed and therefore remains abandoned and unknown. Accordingly, considering the importance of the issue, In the present study, Babolrud basin was investigated due to the presence of many geosites and geotourist potentials. In order to know and study its tourist areas, in this research, 8 geosites are included (Babolsar Suspension Bridge, Babolsar Cable Bridge, Babolsar Rubber Dam (Arabkhel), Haft Tirkan Waterfalls). , Sajjadroud, Guru spa, Terez waterfall, Sanbalroud earthen dam) have been investigated and evaluated. According to what was said, the current research is practical and of a descriptive-survey type, in which the method of data collection was document and survey using a questionnaire of experts and tourists; Also, to analyze the data, M-GAM model and statistical tests using SPSS.26 have been used, and the findings show that according to the overall average and the resulting ranking, the geosite of Sanbalroud earthen dam is ranked first in terms of geotourism potential. After that, there are Terez waterfall, Grove waterfall and suspension bridge, and the cable bridge with a score of 74.87 has been assigned the last rank in terms of geosite characteristics for the development of geotourism in Babalrood basin, and the final results have shown that there is a lot of room for improving geotourism. In these places, especially in terms of tourism value

eotourism (land tourism) consists of two words land and tourism and refers to tourism that has geological, morphological and cultural attractions. The correct and optimal use of these attractions in different areas requires knowledge of different aspects. In this article, by comparing the two methods of Pralong and Pereira, the geotourism capabilities of some geomorphosites in Esko city have been investigated. The results of this research showed that both methods evaluate various aspects of geomorphosite capabilities. And productivity prevails. In the Perira method, the geomorphological and management quality has been evaluated, and in the Pralong method, the tourism quality and productivity quality have been evaluated. In the Perira method, among the 6 selected geomorph sites in the study area, the Kandavan geosite has the highest score (14.95) and Qalgheh Aq has the highest score. Gombad got the lowest score (10/60). Kandavan has the highest score in management grade and geomorphological grade. The main reason for the low score of some landforms according to the Perpera method is the lack of suitable infrastructure and the lack of equipment and support services and their lack of proper access. And according to the results of the Prolong method, the Kandavan landform has a score of (0.57) in tourism quality and a score of (0.75) in productivity quality and is known as the most important geosite of the city. And Googli Lake and Agh Gonbad Castle have the lowest tourism quality and productivity quality. In general, based on the two methods of Pereira and Pralong, which, in addition to the differences in terms of indicators, have commonalities, the geomorphosites with the highest score are more suitable for investment and planning for tourism, and geosites with low scores should be given more attention.

As one of the pillars of tourism, geotourism plays an important role in the economic development of regions. Due to its location in the southern slopes of Alborz and its hydro-climatic situation as well as its political position (close to Tehran), Damavand County has a high potential for the development of geotourism, and for this reason, in this research, the geotourism capabilities of this city are evaluated. Been paid. This research is based on descriptive-analytical methods. In this research, library information, information obtained from field visits, a 30-meter high digital model, and different layers of information have been used as research data. Also, in this research, Zouros and Comanescu methods have been used to evaluate geosites. This research has been done in two general stages, in the first stage, the susceptible geosites of Damavand city have been identified, and in the second stage, they have been evaluated using the Zouros and Comanescu methods. Based on the results of the Zouros method, the Keilan Valley geosite has the highest score with 68 points, and the Masha plain geosite has the highest score with 68 points in the Comanescu method. In total, the results of two methods (average points) have shown that Keilan Valley and Masha plain have the highest points with an average of 67.5 points and are considered as the most valuable geosites of Damavand County. After these geosites, the geosites of Tar and Huyer lakes and Chenar flight site have the highest points with an average of 65.5 points.

Tourism is among the most significant means for doing social and economic changes in developing countries. The development of tourism is so important for those developing countries grappling with high unemployment rates, limited foreign exchange reserves, and a mono-product economy. The climate and geological diversity of Damghan along with being posited along Iran’s primary commercial route have created a significant opportunity for its development. This research was carried out using a descriptive-analytical method. The Brilha method was used to evaluate the geotourism potential of the region. The Brilha model evaluates the geotourism significance of a given region considering their scientific capacity, educational tourism potential, and destructibility risk. The results showed that in terms of scientific capacity, the layers with Trilobite and Cheshmeh Ali have the highest rank with scores of 170 and 250, respectively. In terms of educational tourism potentials, the Astaneh fault and Cheshmeh Ali rank at the top with 295 and 325 scores, respectively. Regarding their degradability risk, the layers with Trilobite and Somayeh Kouh are randed the highest with a score of 320. The results showed that despite the considerable capacity of the studied region as a tourism attraction site and in terms of geo-tourism, only the Cheshmeh Ali geosite is good to tourists. Other geosites have not been welcomed due to being relatively unknown, insufficient marketing, mismanagement, or lack of infrastructure. Therefore, the development of the region as an attraction site depends on careful planning and investment.

The methodology employed in this research is descriptive-analytical with an applied goal. To gather information, both documentary (library) and survey methods have been utilized. The statistical population consists of 400 tourists who visited geotourism attractions in Golestan province, with a particular focus on locations such as Naftliche geysers, Qaniariq Tepe, Inche Barun, and Gamishan city in Golestan province during the year 1401. The sample size for this research was determined to be 197 individuals based on the calculation using Cochran’s formula. Cluster random sampling was the method used for selecting the participants. Data collection was done through the use of a questionnaire. To analyze the data, inferential tests related to the research objectives, such as binomial T-test and multivariate regression analysis, were employed. The research findings demonstrate that geotourism has a significant impact on various dimensions of sustainable tourism indicators (including economic, social, cultural, political, technological, and ecological aspects), as well as its ability to attract tourists to rural areas within Golestan province.

The purpose of this research is to evaluate and analyze the geotourism and geomorphology of Babolsar city using Kubalikova model and Hadzik model. Kubalikova's model is the first method used in this research, and it is mostly based on scientific and educational criteria, and Hadzik's model is also based on scientific values and surplus values index. In this research, three geotourist areas including: Mirud, Kerfun, and Afra Takht were selected. The current research was carried out by filling 60 questionnaires for Kobaliko model (each questionnaire contains 55 questions) and Hadzik model (each questionnaire contains 25 questions) from travelers and experts for all three studied villages and calculating their average scores for different questions. The results indicate that compared to the other two places, Kerfun village is one of the most famous and attractive geomorphosites in the city, and in this respect, it has a score of 64.76, followed by Mirud village with a score of 52.04. It is both. They are at a good level in terms of value. Afra Takht village has the lowest value with a score of 23/24. However, the high score of Kerfun, in addition to its attractiveness, is due to its rarity and distinctiveness compared to other cases. Due to the unknown nature of the attraction, inappropriate communication, accommodation and living facilities for tourists and guidance to know about the most important problems and weaknesses of the region are considered for the development of geotourism.

To find the geotourism potential of a region or to measure the tourist potential of geoparks, researchers in Iran and the world have always sought to evaluate the geosites and geomorphosites of regions. The purpose of this study is to compare the models of Brilha, Comanescu, and Fassoulas, with Shayan Yeganeh et al.’s native model. It examines the strengths and weaknesses of each of the international models with the Iranian model. The study area with an area of 4257 square kilometers is located in the west of Khorasan Razavi, which can include parts of Sabzevar and Davarzan cities. This research has dealt with the subject with an analytical-comparative method. The data were collected using documentary and field methods and analyzed using GIS, SPSS, and Excel graphic and statistical software. The results of the research show that geomorphosites that are water erosion subsets have the highest scores in all models, and in contrast, wind erosion geomorphosites have the lowest scores. From the comparison of the models, it can be concluded that Shayan Yeganeh et al.’s model is the most consistent with Brilha’s model. The Brillha model can be used to evaluate the ophiolite and desert regions. The native model of Shayan Yeganeh is designed for the dry and semi-arid deserts and mountainous regions, and it seems that it is necessary to give a few changes and modifications for coastal and glacial areas. Regarding the innovation of the study, it investigates the latest Iranian model for evaluating geomorphosites and geosites and examines its strengths and weaknesses.

. Considering the increasing development of this part of the tourism industry, the discussion of marketing and competitiveness is considered among the new and serious issues in this field. The purpose of the current research is to evaluate and analyze the geotourism competitiveness of Nir city. Identifying the strengths and weaknesses can help to improve the competitiveness of geotourism in Nir city. Pavlova model was used in this research. This model is based on the formation of positive and negative factors and related calculations. The results indicate that among the positive factors, three factors, the possibility of spa treatment with a weight percentage of 19.95, hydrogeological sites with a weight percentage of 18.06, and protected areas with a weight percentage of 11.11 are the most important positive factors in the competitiveness of Nir city. Coming. Among the negative factors, the lack of suitable infrastructure with a weighted percentage of 21.43, budget deficit for the development of the region with a weighted percentage of 19.64, and the non-conceptual development of geotourism with a weighted percentage of 17.86 are considered to be among the most effective negative factors on the competitiveness of tourism in Nir city. The results of the ranking ratio show that the positive factors gained 56.25 percent weight and the negative factors got 43.75 percent weight. Based on this, the rating ratio of tourism competitiveness of Nir city is equal to 1.67, which is in the good classification group. Therefore, it is concluded that the presence of serious weaknesses in some fields of tourism in Nir city, such as insufficient or unfavorable spatial of infrastructure and facilities, has caused Nir city not to be placed in the top tiers in terms of the of geotourism. Therefore, it is suggested to study the factors affecting tourism economy in future studies.

Geotourism is a type of tourism that focuses on both natural and man-made points of interest. In geotourism, geomorphological phenomena are considered more significant than other geological phenomena. This kind of tourism is not only for specialists and experts in geomorphology and geology but also for ordinary tourists and nature enthusiasts. The purpose of this research is to evaluate and analyze the potential geotourism destinations in Ardabil Province, with a specific focus on geomorphological sites. Hadzik and Fiolet's methods were used for the study. In Hadzik's model, the value and importance of each geotourism site were estimated based on scientific value and surplus values. Fiolet's model was analyzed based on management and tourism rates and their respective value ranges. The results of Hadzik's model showed that the geotourism areas of Nair, Nemin, and Heer had values of 36.22, 29.48, and 51.69, respectively. Based on these values, the geotourism area of Hir has high and relatively good potential compared to the other two areas. The results of Fiolet's model also showed that the geotourism areas of Hir had the highest score, followed by Nair and Nemin, in terms of geotourism capabilities. Therefore, it can be concluded that the geotourism area of Heir has more attraction power for the development of geotourism than the other studied areas. Additionally, future studies to identify new geotourism areas should consider conducting online studies and tourism-based surveys.

Geotourism is one of the growing sectors of the tourism industry, which is related to geomorphological forms and processes. Geotourism is a type of natural tourism that pays special attention to geology and landscapes. The purpose of this research is to identify the geotourism potentials of Sarein city by using the national park model and Hadzik model. In Hadzik's model, the value and importance of each geotourist place is estimated in this method by the indicators of scientific value and surplus values of that geotourist place. Feuillet model is analyzed based on management and tourism rates and their value range. The results of the Hadzik model showed that according to the results of the scientific value, surplus and vulnerability according to the experts and tourists of the geotourist area in Vargesaran, Kanzeq and Viladargh, the values are (37.17), (26.46) and (53.47), respectively. They gave. Based on this, the geotourist area of Viladraq has a high and relatively good potential compared to the other two areas. The results of Feuillet model also showed that according to the studied sub-indices, the geotourist areas of Vila Dargh had the highest score, Derband Vergesaran area was ranked second, and Kanzeq area was ranked third in terms of geotourism capabilities. Therefore, it can be concluded that the geotourist area of Viladragh has more attraction power in terms of geotourism capability than the studied areas in the direction of geotourism development. It is also suggested to conduct several studies based on virgin geotourism resources in future researches to identify virgin geotourism areas.

Tourism can be international or domestic in a country. According to this organization, tourism is not only limited to the trips that are made during the holidays, but if a traveler moves away from his place of residence and travels to another place in the country or even another country and spends a period of time doing business and Even if he is educated, he is classified as a tourist. As we mentioned, tourism is both domestic and international. The purpose of this research is to investigate and evaluate the capabilities and potentials of geotourism (case study: Alvares, Darabad, Noran villages). The method of this research is applied, analytical and comparative, in this research, a dynamic model was used to evaluate the potential of tourism, and the Pavlova model was used to evaluate the competitiveness of geotourism areas. The value and importance of geotourist areas in the Hadzik model is estimated by three indicators of scientific value, surplus values ​​and the degree of vulnerability of the areas, and in the Pavlova model, the competitiveness of the areas is estimated in terms of positive and negative factors. In the dynamic model, using Cochran's sample size formula, the number of experts and tourists has been determined, and a questionnaire of 55 visitors and 10 experts was used to evaluate the geotourism potential of the studied area. The results show that the geotourism potential of Darabad is 33.4, Noran is 36.44, and Alvares is 59.64. The geotourism potential of Darabad and Noran is average and not much different from each other, but Alvares region has good geotourism potential. Also, to evaluate the competitiveness of the studied areas, the results obtained from the analysis of positive and negative factors indicate that the final results of the numerical value of the areas of Darabad are equal to 1.14, Noran is equal to 1.18, which have satisfactory competitiveness and Alvarez geotourism area with The value of 1.41 has good competitiveness. Therefore, it is concluded that Alvarez tourism region has appropriate potentials for attracting tourists in terms of competitiveness compared to other studied tourism regions.
