Abstract
Traditional navigation systems such as paper maps or directional signs are impractical in many ways. For example, they are unable to identify the user's location or continuously navigate the user to their destination. As a result, many users are lost even though they have a map in their hand. To mitigate this problem, this work proposes a navigation system which includes 1) a web-based system that is used to maintain (e.g., insert new places, update place information or delete places) the attractions in the map and 2) an electronic map application for mobile devices which provides many functionalities. For example, 1) a navigation function which directs the users to their desired places correctly and rapidly, 2) a nearby place search function which provides information about nearby places to help users plan their next stops and 3) route recommendation which provides a route to a series of attractions. The evaluations demonstrate that the proposed system outperforms baselines in many aspects.
