ABSTRACT

This study sought to develop indicator sets to measure the level of sustainability of the cave conservation park and to use them to evaluate the sustainability of the Gosu cave. The most difficult problems in evaluating the sustainability levels included the lack of available data and reliable criteria for each variable and the ambiguity for evaluating the relative importance in indicator sets. In this study, the application guidelines composed of normative-analytical-practical dimensions proposed a way of putting the indicator sets to use according to the characteristics of tourism such as location and resources. Both data availability for measured variables and establishment of minimum and satisfactory level of sustainability for each indicator were prerequisites for evaluating the sustainability level of a cave conservation park.
