Trip Planning Query for Bagan Using the Partial Sequenced Route Algorithm

Abstract

Trip planning query represents an important class of queries in Geographic Information System (GIS). Trip planning has some important features that include selection of points of interest (POIs), path routing, and trip time. In the proposed system, path routing is used to search the route with the minimum road network distance and to systematically make the route for the trips of both tourists and local people who visit Bagan. Users can visit the number of POIs of categories that include pagodas, restaurants and hotels in Bagan. The trip planning system of Bagan is implemented by using the Partial Sequenced Route (PSR) Algorithm. Mobile application development is now quite popular, and Android is one of the most popular mobile device platforms. So, Android platform is used in this trip planning system. The proposed system helps tourists and local people to search the route of trip based on user-interested categories with the minimum road network distance in real world. The system also finds a meeting place for two users in different locations.
