Proposals and implementation of tourism resource stimulation using public and private sector data

The case of Suzaka city zoo

Abstract

With municipalities working on local informatization, interest in the use of information and communication technologies in the field of tourism is growing. This research project aims to heighten Suzaka City Zoo’s appeal as a touristic site in coordination with municipal informatization measures and open data efforts. We also discuss how its undertakings heighten the appeal of the municipality as a whole and can lead to further development of the area.
