Virtual road signs service
Опубликовано 07.10.13 пользователем Ekaterina
Background and Motivation:
Car trips is one of popular tourism types. Usually car trips are organized by small groups like family and trip plan contains list of several attractions, but this plan is freedom to change. When car rides on road driver uses navigation system which are show nearest objects and road to target place. Unfortunately, when car rides crossroad, navigation system didn't show information about road directions, like attractions, hotels and other services. But these relatively closed places may be interesting for tourists.
Project Summary:
It is a mobile application that helps to replace shortage of physical road signs. When approaching an intersection of the roads, the application provides user information that is missing from physical signs, e.g., about possible directions of travel and destinations, attractions and interesting objects (e.g., social and administrative facilities) in each direction. Project doesn't replace traditional navigation system. It's complements information about nearest area. Application uses geo2tag-based platform for storing attractions and other points.
