Travel and tourism industry makes an evident impact on the world economy. Lack of real information on tourist sight-seeing places, is impacting trip planning for a major number of tourists. Growing smart-phone users, increased sensing capabilities provided by smart phones, and the ability to share that data over the internet, presents an opportunity to build a mobile application that can provide an insight into mobility information through passive sensing. We have developed a mobile application to bridge the information gap by passively tracking tourist location and improvising tourist services using mobile crowd-sensing. Capabilities to cluster location data to form places of interest have been particularly focused in this paper. Finally, we present results for an initial experiment performed on a tourist to Australia. |
