| Popis: |
The tourist industry needs an extensive information support to promote their activities. There are many existing information resources that have two main characteristics: focus on local initiatives and are very heterogeneous (using different data models, frequency of update etc). On the other hand users have their own requirements. They want to find interesting, attractive and credible information in a simple and fast way. The concept of SmartTouristData is developed as part of Smart Open Data and SDI4APPS interconnect a view of users and character of data sources. Our approach adds other components such as global and local open data sources and crowd-sourcing initiatives, social media (feedback from users) and the latest technologies and standards. The SmartTouristData provides benefits for two main groups. Users are able to find information in one place and to compare and evaluate information from more sources. They are appreciative of the simple and attractive interface for dealing with information. SmartTouristData also supports business subjects. An easy integration of project system to proprietary solutions, reusing and sharing of existing information resources and tools saves money and time, because it is not necessary to collect or buy data or develop new software. Moreover users are not forced to change or modify their ways of providing of information. SmartTouristData connects both main participants of the tourist industry by providing high-quality information, as satisfied and well-informed users will come back and recommend the destination. |
