Multi-device Access to Customized and Geolocated Content on the Way of Saint James

摘要

The proposed platform is intended to foster the dissemination of the rich Galician cultural heritage by providing a geo-located service infrastructure for the promotion of the Way of Saint James. Using a mobile device, pilgrims may access a personalized multimedia travel companion that will adapt its content according to their location and profile. This system has a powerful engine for generating dynamic playlists based on users' particular location and declared preferences and interests. These playlists include multimedia content and learning activities adapted to the current user context. Contextualized education with geolocated educational activities related to the Jacobean routes is one of the main innovations of this platform, which blends technologies as interactive television, mobile communications, geolocation, semantic reasoning and e-learning.
