SuperGeo Technologies has developed ‘Yilan Recreation and Living Web’ by using SupeWebGIS, the Internet map server software, for tourists visiting Yilan County. Tourists can get the latest information of the sight by real-time video and multimedia and feel like traveling in person.
The increasing number of tourists who prefer in-depth tour has affected the development of the tourism industry. Since the Internet has helped people search the travel information in a convenient way, various types of tourism websites have emerged.
In order to integrate the information of numerous scenic spots and guest houses, SuperGeo combines WebGIS framework and multi-media technologies to create a website with rich travel information for Yilan County, called Yilan Recreation and Living Web.
The Website is for the public to query travel and spatial information in an easy way via the Internet without installing any plug-ins. Based on WebGIS technology, Yilan Recreation and Living Web adopts SuperWebGIS as the map server platform, Microsoft Access as the database, and utilizes ASP.NET and Java Script, etc.
The user interface of Yilan Recreation and Living Web is easy and friendly. Tourists only need to use basic and intuitive navigation tools, like zoom in/out, pan, etc. and can view the map clearly and effortlessly. In addition to map navigation, the website enables users to query the sights and use GIS positioning on the platform.
Different from other recreation websites which display the query results as static texts, numbers, and pictures, the query function in Yilan Recreation and Living Web displays the results with ‘real-time video and multimedia’ and lets users get the latest information of the sight and feel like traveling in person. Tourism development, as a result, is enhanced by means of Internet and GIS technologies.
According to SuperGeo, the company’s latest version of the Internet Server Software, SuperWebGIS 3, will be launched soon on August 16.
