Original Kurzfassung:
Location-based systems in the area of tourism, so-called mobile
tourist guides, combine geographic information and tourism information in
order to deliver relevant content to tourists on the spot. Existing systems often
adhere to a heavy-weight approach. This means that, firstly, some do not build
on existing tourism information systems, secondly, most of them do not employ
standards for accessing geographical information systems, and thirdly, the
majority employ a thick client. To tackle these issues, we propose a lightweight
approach for location based systems. A major focus is on
configurability, allowing to easily making existing tourism information
location-aware, by pinpointing points of interest to geographical positions on a
map. To demonstrate the applicability of the framework, a prototype of a
mobile tourist guide has been implemented for the city of Linz, Austria, which
delivers geographic data in form of maps or aerial photos and information about
local points of interest.
