Popis: | Together with other cities in Austria and Switzerland, the city of Innsbruck hosted the UEFA (Union of European Football Association) EURO 2008™. The European Football Championships is the world's third-largest sport event. During this event, the mobile information system ilbi (intelligent local-based information), was tested. ilbi provides on-site information for tourists, event visitors, and locals with the help of radio frequency identification technology. The case study presented in this article shows options and challenges when installing a radio frequency identification based mobile information system at destinations. Recent literature in the field of mobile information systems in destinations is reviewed, and the case study of ilbi is presented. The article concludes with recommendations for further initiatives in the field of mobile location orientated information systems. |
