| dc.description.abstract | Mobile services available on mobile devices such as mobile phones and
personal digital assistants are a suitable instrument for spontaneous, ad hoc access to
information travelers need while being on the move. Mobile services allow to book
last-minute trips, rental cars, and hotels; they provide information about changes and
delays of flights and trains, and offer guides on restaurants, events, and sightseeing
opportunities at the destination. Location-based Services (LBSs) are mobile services
for providing information that has been created, compiled, selected or filtered under
consideration of the users’ current locations or those of other persons or mobile
devices. So, in this thesis, our goal is to build a software application that supports
necessary information for tourists in Vietnam. We’ll develop our application by using
Location-based Services technique and running on the Android platform. The four
primary functions of system are: (1) localization of persons, and places, (2) routing
between two places, (3) search for objects in proximity such as restaurants, shops,
hotels, or sights, and (4) navigation for persons from one place to another. | en_US |
