Summary: | This paper focuses on possibilities of information provision for tourists so that they can get familiar more easily with new cultures and the “unknown” environment by means of commonly known and user friendly interfaces. Each object of interest can be equipped with a wireless identification tag that can serve as: 1) Pointer to already downloaded information and thus associate it with the real object in his proper environment. 2) Link for downloading of information in real time – if a wireless communication is available. 3) Direct provider of such information – if the identification tag has sufficient capacity. 4) Provider for feedback inclusive management of tourist movement so that the communication routes are not overloaded. Information support for such kinds of tourist areas is presented. Logistic model based on Petri nets is used for simulation and life cycle assessment following Ekoindikator 99 is evaluated. Advantages of described solutions are discussed. |
