Map-Based Tour Information Management System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current travel information management systems lack comprehensive and organized data for planning tour routes, as they only provide names of locations without marking relative positions, making it time-consuming and prone to inaccuracies for travelers to plan effective trips.
Innovation Solution
A method for managing map-type tour information that allows users to select and label scenic spots and shops on a map, creating links to input detailed information such as introductions, web addresses, videos, and appraisals, enabling the recording and planning of tour routes.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If only names of locations are labeled on websites, then the system is simple to operate, but the information is incomplete and cannot show relative locations
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions from one-dimensional text-based location names to two-dimensional map-based visual representation. By displaying scenic spots and shops on a map with their relative positions, the system provides spatial context and complete tour route information while maintaining ease of operation through intuitive visual navigation.
2Reliability
If travelers search for information themselves on websites, then they can find tour information, but it is time-consuming and may be incorrect
Solution Approach 1:
The patent pre-organizes complete tour route information including scenic spots, shops, and relative locations on an interactive map before the traveler needs it. This preliminary structuring of data allows travelers to directly view accurate tour information without spending time searching or verifying details themselves.
3Loss of information
If detailed information of each scenic spot and shop is recorded, then complete tour routes can be planned, but the system becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a multi-functional system where the map serves multiple purposes: displaying geographic locations, showing tour routes, providing information about scenic spots and shops, and enabling interactive exploration. This universal map-based platform consolidates various information management functions into a single intuitive interface, reducing overall system complexity while maintaining information completeness.

AI summary
A method of managing map-type tour information, which allows a travel-lover to record each trip. A plurality of scenic spots passed through in the trip is labeled on a map. By linking the plurality of scenic spots, a tour route is formed and shown clearly on the map. Set a link to each of the scenic spots, click the link to each of the scenic spot, and input the introduction, related web addresses, and appraisals to the scenic spots.
