Title
User-Adaptive Maps for Location-Based Services (LBS) for Tourism
Abstract
Producing interactive maps for internet applications in tourism has become widespread. But they are often quite simple in terms of adaptation to the user or context. We argue that it is not enough to focus on adaptions to technical parameters (device characteristics, QoS, location, …), but propose that tourist maps need to be dynamically generated according to a wider range of variables from user preferences and interests, the given task, cultural aspects to communicative goals and actual context and location. This means that a system that is able to generate such maps needs to exploit user models and context knowledge. Within this paper, we focus on two aspects of LBS, i.e., using the spatial and personal context for proactive tips and generating personalised maps, by presenting an overview about posible parameters and propose a model for adaptive map generation and give examples of first prototypical realizations.
