为了避免旅游者被大量的旅游信息淹没，本文提出了一种旅游信息服务的替代方法，即潜在的兴趣地图。潜在兴趣地图将旅游区中每个地方的观光潜力可视化，这是根据以前游客发现令人印象深刻的地方的数据估计的。这些地图为游客提供了直观的帮助，并将节省他们在决策时的精力。在本文中，我们首先比较了五种可能的方法来获取数据的位置，以前的游客留下了深刻的印象，其中使用照片地理标签的结论是最有前途的。然后，我们构建了一个潜在的ofinterest地图的例子，利用Flickr的照片数据。最后，我们开发了一个移动的旅游信息工具的原型，它具有潜在的利益地图。在我们的用户测试中，12个测试用户中有9个表示打算在其他目的地再次使用此工具。
To prevent tourists from being overwhelmed by a flood of tourist information, this paper proposes an alternative approach to tourist information services, namely potential-of-interest maps. Potential-of-interest maps visualize the sightseeing potential of each place in a tourist area, which is estimated from data about locations where previous visitors have found something impressive. Such maps provide visual aids for tourists and will save their effort at decision making. In this paper, we first compare five possible approaches for obtaining data about locations where previous visitors have been impressed, among which the use of photo geo-tags is concluded the most promising. We then construct an example of potential-ofinterest maps making use of Flickr’s photo data. Finally, we develop a prototype of a mobile tourist information tool which features a potential-of-interest map. In our user test, nine of twelve test users show an intention to use this tool again at other destinations.
