Development of Dynamic Real-Time Navigation System
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 11
Abstract
This study aimed to develop a system that considers dynamic real-time situations to provide effective support for tourist activities. The conclusions of this study are summarized in the following three points: (1) The system was developed by integrating Web-GIS, social media, recommendation systems and AR terminals (smart glasses) into a single system, and operated in the center part of Yokohama City in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan. It enabled the accumulation, sharing and recommendation of information and navigation to guide users to their goals both in normal conditions and in the event of disasters. (2) The web-based system was aimed at members of the general public over 18 years old and operated for seven weeks. The total number of users was 86, and 170 items of information were contributed. A system using smart glasses operated for two days, and the total number of users was 34. (3) Evaluation results clarified that it was possible to support user behavior both in normal conditions and in the event of disasters, and to efficiently and safety conduct navigation using smart glasses. Operation premised on disaster conditions showed that users who accessed the system via mobile information terminals increased, and actively used functions requiring location information.
