Abstract

With advances of the mobile Internet, location based services (LBSs) attracted attention of many people. This report presents description of a software system that supports rapid development of integrated, high quality LBSs for tourists in urban areas. We describe system architecture that divides system in several parts. One of the parts consists of reusable components that are used to make up LBSs. Reuse of the components allows integration and rapid development of LBSs. We also emphasize that LBSs should provide correct and up to date information. As proof of concept, we combine components into mobile LBSs for tourists.
