Abstract

We have developed the historical tour support system that provides its users with appropriate information according to each phase of the tour ubiquitously. There are many systems to serve sightseeing information used WWW, but most contents of those systems are not so interesting. In addition, there are few systems to support the lifecycle of historic tour. Our system has interesting display such as 3D graphics and multilingualism for users before sightseeing. And this system serves information about the historic spot where they are now with a cellular phone and GPS. After the tour user can enjoy his picture albums that have been produced automatic by the server during tour. We have tried this system and have gotten a good evaluation by 10 user's questionnaire.
