Mobile tourist guides
Richard Schaller · 2014
We present a mobile tourist guide for planning and conducting sightseeing day trips. Users are provided different means to access and select the available sights, events and other points of interest (POIs): Via a hybrid recommender system, via browsing by sight category, via searching over descriptions of POIs or via browsing on a map. Based on user's selection a route planner for time-constrained activities generates route suggestions taking additional constraints for public transport connections into account.
