At present, in general tourists and travellers waste a lot of time planning and deciding their trips to achieve
maximum satisfaction. In this context, this application aims to identify the main computing needs to support
the improvement of tourist point of promotion for the traveller, by the means of an easy to use mobile
application proposal.
Normally, most travellers like to visit the famous sightseeing spots as well as local charms unique to that
place. To achieve this, we propose a system that can automatically show a travel route and plan for the user.
This application also leads to quicker decision making with respect to places to visit.
This system is basically used to help a traveller new to the city or anyone who wants to explore a city within
a specific time period. The user is supposed to enter his/her interests and preferences while signing up. Once
the account has been created, the user can choose the location manually or let the system detect his/her
current location as the starting and ending point of the trip. Then, the start and end time of the trip must be
specified by the user. Since all the trips of a user will be stored, he/she can also view the previous trips.
Smart City Traveller as the name indicates, smartly makes its way in analyzing users’ interests and
preferences and the time period the user is willing to explore a place and designs an itinerary and a route
with the best tourist spots around the selected location such that he/she returns to the starting location by the
specified end time. This makes use of shortest path algorithms for determining the route.
“Smart City Traveler” mobile application which will help to travel in any specific region. This app is
basically for the new comer in any city or any place. Through this app, we will provide the information
about that particular place. Not only the information but also the famous places of those areas, the distance
of those areas from any particular location, the specialty about those places. Along with the famous place,
this app will show the nearby location also. This app will help the tourists to great extent. Not only the
tourist but anyone can use this app for the guideline regarding any places. This app can be used in
anywhere by anyone.
As it’s a mobile application which is user-friendly as well as pocket-friendly too. In today’s generation, the
smart phone has become so common that it can be available in anyone’s pocket. This kind of mobile
application helps in making the city as smart as can by providing the facility to the user anywhere. In this
application we will use the GSM (Global system for mobile communication) services, GPS (Global
positioning system) services; this will help in finding the location easily. GPS is the space-based
navigation system that provides location and time information in all weather conditions, anywhere.
1. In the existing systems, the tourist has to face many problems and troubles while traveling, they have
to hire a tour guide for traveling and for that they have to pay extra money. Sometimes tour guide
cheats them and they have to face multiple problems.
2. Sometimes finding places becomes difficult for tourist because they don’t know the name of specific
places, each and every time they have to ask for a different kind of place with their name to other
people, as they are newer in the city so it is difficult for them.
3. So, in order to resolve all the travel problems for the user, this application plays a crucial role in
guiding them to reach every destination and explore different parts of a particular city.
4. This will make users journey way easier and user doesn’t need to hire any tour guide as this will act
as a tour guide for the traveler. There are multiple places included in this application This application
will give each and every information about a place with a click. So that traveler doesn’t need to ask
any information about a particular place to anyone.
5. Travelers have different mother tongue with different languages, so we are making available
language select option this will make the user very familiar with our application.
In the proposed system, “planned time to return” is also considered at the time of the use. In this way, this
system can propose a sightseeing route and sightseeing plan that it can guide that used present time from
time to return time automatically.
The system automatically searches for places of interest around the location. So, the traveller will not miss
out on any attractions which he is unaware of. The interests and preferences of the user is also considered
and the places are chosen accordingly. In this application system, we make a list of sightseeing information
according to sightseeing categories. In the result, we display both guidance routes on the map and guidance
routes by text. The application displays a menu with the main categories of attractions available in the city,
by clicking on one of the categories all the related information is displayed.

6. Conclusion
Since travelling is one of the important aspect today, it is very necessary that proper planning need to be done
beforehand in terms of time management. Most people without using the latest technology waste a lot of time
just planning trips. So, an application like Smart City Traveller really helps tourists to utilize their precious
time to the fullest and also enjoy their trip at the same time.
