[4/4] 🙌 Our study contributes to the understanding of the interplay between tourism services and urban #environments. 🗺️ By utilizing geospatial datasets, we advocate for form-based policies to address the challenges of #overtourism. 🌍💡 #Venice #tourism

[3/4]📌Key findings: Our research reveals the positive association between #Tourism Index scores and popular #landmarks, large #bridges, and #street width in Venice.These insights help understand how urban form rates to tourism saturation and inform space-specific #policies.
