| Abstract: |
We develop a web service focusing on finding places not
(only) by their address, but by systematically relating the places to activities
that a person could perform there. This is helpful if a person
wants to explore a new city, or plans leisure activities. OpenStreetMap
provides a rich set of tags that can be used for activity-oriented search.
We propose the use of several ontologies that are related to each other using
matching tools to cope with the evolving nature of the tags available
in social media. |
