| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 地理環境資源學研究所 === 98 === Tourism is now a vigorous industry, which is also indispensable to people in this era. Most people obtain tourism information by searching on the internet in advance. However, the itinerary information provided by the current tourism websites does not reflect consumers’ needs. They provide only pre-designed itineraries for travellers to choose. Comparing to the large amount of tourists and their varieties of demands, the quantity of these pre-designed itineraries is small and does not satisfy all tourists with their various needs. Therefore, a system which allows travellers to create and adjust itineraries according to their travel preference would be helpful for prospectors.
This research sets up an automatic itinerary planning system to assist travellers creating personalized itineraries and reducing the time in searching using the technique of GIS. A new itinerary-planning model is built on the foundation of theories of planning travel itineraries, other related researches, practical experiences, and statistics information.
In the model, user’s preferences are criteria used to create appropriate routes of sites and activities. The capacity of each route and the sequence of sites in each route are arranged by the best visiting time. The model of travel itineraries Oppermann brought up in 1995 is also modified and applied to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of planning. The travel itinerary created by this system is more feasible and suitable for users’ demands.
