GIS-based Travelers Guided Information System

Abstract

Geographic information system (GIS) offers great opportunities for the development of modern tourism application using maps .In this paper, we propose a tourism information system for supporting the location based service of GIS applications. So this paper implements GIS based information system for Mandalay District and will contain functionality that allows users to point-and-click their location on the map. Our goal is to provide information to travelers and to facilitate travel. Shortest path problems are among the most studied network flow optimization problems. One such application is in the field of GIS routing systems. Due to the nature of routing applications, we need flexible and efficient shortest path procedures, both from a processing time point of view and also in terms of the memory requirements. Dijkstra algorithm is the best shortest path algorithm for networks with non-negative arc lengths. In this paper, we study how to find the shortest path easily and timely by using Dijkstra shortest path algorithm .And our proposed system also provides background information of interesting places in Mandalay. According to our study, travelers can get efficient travelling with minimum distance and background information.
