The data and platform could help address information gaps and issues like road safety. However, challenges remain around distributing ads, educating users, and establishing trust in SMS services.
Online Mapping Patterns in 2013 and Beyond
1) Online maps are becoming more common and expected by users, especially on mobile devices. Maps provide a geospatial context that is useful for international aid and development organizations.
2) Trends in online mapping include focused applications, open data APIs, near real-time data, curated map experiences on mobile, and story maps to engage stakeholders.
3) Mobile mapping is growing rapidly as most internet devices are now mobile. Organizations should ensure mobile is part of their online mapping strategy to reach the billions of people expected to be online globally by 2014, especially in developing areas like Africa.
Technology Disrupting Media
Technology has significantly changed how people acquire and share information. It has disrupted traditional media through new communication platforms like social media and mobile devices. In Africa, there is now more broadband internet access than electricity, youth are "digital natives" who prefer mobile phones over newspapers, and mobile internet is driving media consumption. While social media has enabled mass organization and sharing of news, it also poses challenges like misinformation that traditional media must adapt to through new business models focused on digital, mobile, and paid content.

Mobile ICT in a Festival Context by Dr. Kelly MacKay, Ted Rogers School of Management
The purpose of the research is to gain an in-depth understanding of mobile technology adoption / non-adoption in a festival context. This project begins to address how and why festival attendees use / do not use mobile devices at festivals.
This presentation is part of a multi-year and multi-city (Edmonton, Winnipeg, Toronto) program of research supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC).
The Power of Context and The Future of Digital Marketing
This document discusses how emerging technologies are making computing devices more intuitive by understanding context. It explains that context is influenced by what is around us and what we want to do next. It also discusses how the combination of mobile devices, social media, data, sensors, and location-based services allows technology to gain a better understanding of context by knowing who we are, what we are doing, and what we may do next. However, this increased understanding of context through our personal data comes at the tradeoff of privacy versus personalization.
1 1 ict & tourism_introduction
The document discusses information and communication technologies (ICT) in tourism. It provides an overview of how ICT is used across the tourism industry, from stakeholders to intermediaries to suppliers and destinations. Tourism is defined as an information-based industry due to its reliance on information to reduce uncertainty for both consumers and suppliers. Characteristics of tourism services like intangibility, syncronism, and non-storability increase information needs. The tourism market structure and value chain are also covered.
How ICT is shaping Travel and Tourism landscapes
A presentation on how ICT has changed Travel and Tourism Landscape. The main areas of focus is Distribution, Marketing , User Experience and Retail of travel products.
(Ict) and tourism
The document discusses the role of Information Communication Technologies (ICT) in tourism, both currently and historically. It defines ICT and provides examples of technologies used today, such as cell phones, the internet, GPS, and digital media. ICT plays a key role in tourism marketing, operations, and site management. Technologies like geospatial information systems help with tasks like land use planning and monitoring environmental impacts at tourism sites. While ICT is important for tourism businesses, it is best to design systems around business needs rather than letting technology dictate strategy. Rural areas also face challenges in accessing ICT that require innovative solutions.
Community mapping, web GIS and the Creative Rural Economy
The document proposes using community mapping, web GIS, and a focus on the creative rural economy to empower communities and support rural development. It involves establishing positions at the Applied Geomatics Research Group to build spatial databases and online tools to engage communities in Annapolis and Digby counties in years 1 and expanding to other areas in year 2. Workshops and training materials would be developed to support communities in areas like agriculture, tourism, culture and history. Funding is requested from various sources including the Rural Secretariat to support the two year proposal.
Fault Enhancement Using Spectrally Based Seismic Attributes -- Dewett and Hen...
Fault interpretation in seismic data is a critical task that must be completed to thoroughly understand the structural history of the subsurface. The development of similarity-based attributes has allowed geoscientists to effectively filter a seismic data set to highlight discontinuities that are often associated with fault systems. Furthermore, there are numerous workflows that provide, to varying degrees, the ability to enhance this seismic attribute family. We have developed a new method, spectral similarity, to improve the similarity enhancement by integrating spectral decomposition, swarm intelligence, magnitude filtering, and orientated smoothing. In addition, the spectral similarity method has the ability to take any seismic attribute (e.g., similarity, curvature, total energy, coherent energy gradient, reflector rotation, etc.), combine it with the benefits of spectral decomposition, and create an accurate enhancement to similarity attributes. The final result is an increase in the quality of the similarity enhancement over previously used methods, and it can be computed entirely in commercial software packages. Specifically, the spectral similarity method provides a more realistic fault dip, reduction of noise, and removal of the discontinuous “stair-step” pattern common to similarity volumes.
Role of IT in Tourism - Management Information Systems
Tourism is defined as travel and stay of non-residents and is one of the most remarkable economic and social phenomena in the world. It has three major components: the attraction sector, accommodation sector, and transport sector. New technologies like the internet, websites, videos, and television advertising help promote tourism. Travel agencies provide expert advice, while accommodation units offer video and entertainment. The transport sector facilitates tourist movement using equipment like airplanes, coaches, buses, and taxis with communication systems. Technologies also enable personalized profiling, electronic payment, online word of mouth, and systems for reservations and distribution to benefit the tourism industry.
Management Information Systems in Hospitality Sector
This presentation is about the various information system techniques and software used in Hospitality Sector or Hotel Management Systems.
Tourism Planning
This document discusses tourism planning. Some key points:
- Tourism planning seeks to integrate social, economic, political, and environmental factors related to tourism development and management. It involves planning at multiple levels from individual businesses to national governments.
- Tourism planning in India began in the 1980s with the recognition of tourism as an industry and the establishment of committees and plans to develop the tourism sector. Subsequent five-year plans further encouraged tourism development and private sector participation.
- The tourism planning process generally involves defining objectives, collecting and analyzing data, formulating preliminary and final plans, implementing plans, and monitoring and evaluating outcomes. Challenges include stakeholder commitment, establishing baselines, and identifying appropriate indicators.
ICT Benefits
This document discusses the benefits of information and communication technologies (ICT). It summarizes that ICT provides economic benefits such as increased GDP, jobs, and business registration when broadband penetration increases. However, ICT is also a general purpose technology that can transform societies by improving education, market access, and innovation over the long-run. While ICT has great potential to increase well-being, its benefits are not automatic and require resilient policy support to fully develop and ensure their sustainability.
How the Mobile Technologies and ICT-s in the Tourism Sector Affect the Social...
Travel today is an activity for millions of people around the world, not only directly related to tourism purposes, but for many other reasons. The past 20 years, the transport sector was significantly upgraded by providing convenience, speed and more facilities, in most cases with relatively low cost. Also, the tourism sector is heavily influenced by information technology and communication (ICT-s) as one of the tools that providers of tourism services are mainly used for marketing and sales purposes. One of the very important effects of tourism is to bring positive results in the social cohesion of the countries where is developed. But the phenomenon that is noticed nowadays is that people from different social groups like young people, elderly and people with disabilities are using ICT massively for planning their holidays, for being informed about the destination where they want to go, for bookings, reservations, payments etc. This article aims to show that the mobile technology and innovations in ICT-s in the tourism sector have positive effects on the social cohesion and the industry itself. Application producers for mobile equipments are providing innovative and practical services which have often very logical prices, attracting millions of users.
Use of gis and social media in knowledge management systems for ecotourism
The document discusses developing a knowledge management system (KMS) for ecotourism using geographic information systems (GIS) and social media. It proposes that a KMS could include a database to capture and codify knowledge from various sources using social media and GIS for mapping and analysis. This knowledge could then be applied, shared, and disseminated through marketing materials on social media, Google Earth and other platforms. The document argues that GIS and social media are important for ecotourism because they allow for personalized tourism marketing and knowledge acquisition and sharing in a collaborative environment.
Digital possibilities in international development_Soundbite
The document discusses the potential benefits of digital technologies in international development as well as challenges to realizing that potential. Key benefits include mobile phones improving access to markets and services for farmers, reducing travel needs through e-government services, and delivering education and health information via mobile apps. However, affordability, literacy, lack of local content, and limited physical access continue to constrain digital's impact. Moving forward, focus is needed on expanding connectivity, developing relevant local content, increasing affordability, and strengthening real-world foundations to support digital growth.

Proposal Part One - Part 1: Influence of Internet on Tourism Industry
Research Proposal: Influence of Internet on Tourism Industry
Introduction
The tourism industry has been among the best-valued sectors within the nation to generate massive revenue for the government. Besides, the industry is considered among the earliest since it started several decades ago. For an extended period, the industry uses Integrated Marketing Communications to promote their various products and services to the entire world. The introduction of technology in the industry leads to improvements in the sectors. Most individuals without extensive information on the tourism industry can access the data in their comfort zones. It implies that IT and internet technology play a significant role in ensuring effective strategy due to its existence globally.
Most European countries have tried to promote and implement internet technology in ensuring satisfactory delivery of products and services (Kayumovich, 2020). Since it has a custom within the tourism and hotel industry to provide intangible products and services, including but not limited to services alongside comfort, the internet has been an effective method of delivering its messages to the targeted customers. Also, through internet technology, the industry has achieved more customers in the global market, including the European market. The promotion of branding within the European tourism industry has been effective due to the introduction and implementation of internet technology. Thus, the internet is believed to significantly influence the tourism industry in various sectors, including but limited to infrastructure, travel, alongside the marketing sector. Before introducing the internet alongside the IT, travelling of customers was dangerous and unpleasant since travellers had constraint understanding of locations they were visiting.
As a result, the existing vacationers of time had limited knowledge of the cultures and terrain alongside the climate change and patterns necessary to stimulate the travelling issues. Therefore, tourism sectors, including but not limited to tour companies, travel agencies and other like hotels, had developed strategies necessary to promote booking and reservation processes (David-Negre et al. 2018). However, several decades ago, popular sites were visited by tourists. It implies that the tourism sectors within the local or remote area faced challenges of securing sufficient clients as people were could not define the destination. Also, shortage of information on a particular region leads to reduced travelling by visitors. The research involved the utilization of relevant literature review on the subject matter to provide factual information. Therefore, the report offers adequate information on the influence of the internet on the tourism industry. This research would give me the stage to show my finding and view and also propose how the internet can be leveraged to an extend i ...

The promotion of branding within the European tourism industry has been effective due to the introduction and implementation of internet technology. Thus, the internet is believed to significantly influence the tourism industry in various sectors, including but limited to infrastructure, travel, alongside the marketing sector. Before introducing the internet alongside the IT, travelling of customers was dangerous and unpleasant since travellers had constraint understanding of locations they were visiting.
As a result, the existing vacationers of time had limited knowledge of the cultures and terrain alongside the climate change and patterns necessary to stimulate the travelling issues. Therefore, tourism sectors, including but not limited to tour companies, travel agencies and other like hotels, had developed strategies necessary to promote booking and reservation processes (David-Negre et al. 2018). However, several decades ago, popular sites were visited by tourists. It implies that the tourism sectors within the local or remote area faced challenges of securing sufficient clients as people were could not define the destination. Also, shortage of information on a particular region leads to reduced travelling by visitors. The research involved the utilization of relevant literature review on the subject matter to provide factual information. Therefore, the report offers adequate information on the influence of the internet on the tourism industry. This research would give me the stage to show my finding and view and also propose how the internet can be leveraged to an extend i ...

TraSync Pitch
TraSync is an online booking engine for travel agencies in Nepal that allows customers to book flights, hotels, and transportation directly from travel agency websites. Currently, most travel agency websites only allow inquiries to be submitted, which are then processed manually. This leads to less than 20% of websites generating tourists, with an average of 15 hours needed to process each inquiry. TraSync aims to automate this process, allowing 100% guaranteed services to customers and reducing processing times to zero. The system will first focus on flight bookings before expanding to include hotel and transportation services. TraSync expects to generate $8 million in revenue in its first year after launching the full platform.
When Technology meets Tourism : trasyn.com
Nepal has great potential in tourism due to its natural beauty and cultural values, but it is not effectively promoting itself or providing timely information and responses to tourists. Most tourists only know about Mount Everest and Kathmandu, and find information through outdated travel sites or emails that may not get a response. In comparison, popular tourist destinations like Dubai Mall, Louvre Museum, and San Diego Zoo attract much larger numbers of visitors each year through better online systems. A new platform called Trasyn aims to create an automated online tourism system in Nepal to help book flights, buses, taxis, hotels and plan destinations.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
