Study of Tourism Information System Based on Android Platform Fengbo Hou and Xin Du
Abstract To improve the traditional Tourism Information System, provide a full range of services for tourists, and decision support for managers, this chapter integrates the Android mobile platform and Google Maps server into Tourism Information System. The features of the system include: classification of tourist attractions and related resources, query, locate, and trip planning. The system uses the Android Activity as interface design to select the SQLite database as a frontend database. The system uses http protocol to complete the server and client communication. The system is fully in line with the requirements of the tourism information management system. The advanced spatial server Google Maps make the system more convenient, intuitive, and detail.

87.1 Introduction The tourism industry is the most commercial and promising industry in the current world. Because Xushui has not established the tourism information management system, many tourism resources have not been recognized by tourists. To some extent, the absence restricts the development of tourism in Xushui. In order to upgrade the tourism industry and accelerate the development of tourism, Xushui needs to establish a set of advanced, reasonable, and effective tourism information management system.

the Android system implements the visitors to access the tourist information system easily and greatly improves system operability and convenience [1]. Using as Google Maps API, users will get the tourist attractions and tourism-related resource information on the map, which makes the embodiment of the information more intuitive. In addition, users can also check the map to plan the trip and optimize the trip about the places to visit [2, 3]. A region-based tourism information system covering a variety of tourism resources in the region is very few. These TISs rarely provide statistics, analysis, and decision making for tour operators and managers. The representation of data and selection of the attribute in these TISs cannot meet the tourists and managers. We design the system to enhance the information sharing and using, improve service of self-tourism, the tourism function, and the levels of the tourism management.
87.2 Requirement Analysis The TIS based on Android is to achieve the following objectives: Easy to store, query, retrieval, analysis, management, statistics, release tourism resources and related information, as well as input and output; Comprehensive, multiangle to reflect the chara
