Abstract

This paper proposes a stroll support system that uses a photo sharing service and route display with panoramic images to guide tourists to places of interest within a limited timeframe available for sightseeing. This system obtains photographs from a photo sharing service based on position information and places the pictures on a map with corresponding panoramic images. This enables users to understand what kind of landscape is near their position. Additionally, this system records a user’s walking route and duration, subsequently providing the record as memories of their stroll. Comparison experiment results suggest that the pictures displayed on the map and the panoramic image were very useful in helping tourists choose places of interests.
