Abstract

With the rapid growth cyber-physical system in Industry 4.0, mobile crowdsensing grant their valuable information collected by their sensor about attractions, accommodation, infrastructure, and services facilities of various tourism destinations using mobile phones. The primary purpose of this study is to analyze how mobile crowdsensing helps in tourism 4.0 to explore new attractions with a geographic location to attract more tourists in a destination using geotagging. Arc GIS 10.3 software is used to prepare the study area map and the geostatistics. Proposed model ‘GeoLens’, will help tourists for better understanding about the attractions virtually through Google guide and viewing the location in Google map from geotagging image. Mobile crowdsensing-based GeoLens will attract more tourists to new tourism sites, which will benefit the eco-tourism industry.
