Abstract

" Objective - The present study aims to develop a methodology that can be used to analyze the level of digitalization of the tourism sector in regions by using the private digitalization index for regions and comparing it with the threshold values criterion for regional differentiation through a group of digital infrastructure indicators through which the level of digitalization of regions can be evaluated and applied to the North Caucasus Federal District. Methodology - The work methodology is based on a descriptive and analytical approach to describing the phenomenon of the study's title and a literary approach based on the analysis of sources, literature, graphs, and statistics that examine issues related to the relationship between digitalization and tourism to develop a methodology for analyzing the level of digitization in the tourism sector in the North Caucasus Federal District. Findings - After comparing the results of the private digitalization index for regions with the threshold values of regional differentiation, it is clear that all regions of the North Caucasus Federal District fall into the second group (outsider regions) because all values of the private digitalization index for regions are less than 1.0. Novelty - The current study develops a methodology that can be used to analyze the level of digitization in the tourism sector in the regions in order to find out the current level of digitization in the regions in order to work on the development of digital technologies. Type of Paper - Empirical"
