This paper presents a system of Sustainable Tourism Tags to evaluate the management of tourist destinations, using the information from a composite indicator called the Differential Dynamic Index. This vectorial indicator has two components: one dynamic which shows the advance or regress in time of each destination in terms of sustainability; the other static that compares the situation, at a moment of time, of each zone using multiple benchmarks according to each territory's physical characteristics and tourist activity. The sustainable tourism tags are awarded to the places which show advances, thus rewarding the work carried out by their managers. This system is a practical tool to link the evaluation of the indicator with the planning and management decisions of the destinations. We therefore define a linear programming problem which enables, for each destination, determining the minimum change necessary in the indicators to improve their qualification in the tag system. Finally, we present a case study for the urban destinations of Andalusia (Spain) that illustrates the practical application of the proposed tool.
本文提出了一种可持续旅游标签系统，用于评估旅游目的地的管理，该系统使用了一种名为差分动态指数的综合指标所提供的信息。这个向量指标有两个组成部分：一个动态部分，用于根据每个目的地的可持续性，展示其在时间上的进步或倒退；另一个静态部分，用于根据每个地区的物理特征和旅游活动，使用多个基准来比较每个区域在某个时间点的情况。可持续旅游标签授予那些表现出进步的地方，从而奖励其管理者所做的工作。该系统是一个将指标评估与目的地规划和管理决策联系起来的实用工具。因此，我们定义了一个线性规划问题，该问题可以为每个目的地确定指标所需的最小变化，以提高其在标签系统中的资格。最后，我们提出了一个安达卢西亚（西班牙）城市目的地的案例研究，说明了所提出工具的实际应用。
