Abstract

Development of metropolitan ring roads and successive certification of world cultural heritages across the country should be the situation of tailwind for inbound tourism to Japan. This paper proposes functional requirements to introduce effective infra-light ICT that would both promote additional trips in surrounding local areas and appeal abundant tourism resources, based on serial experiments of recommending additional visits to tourist facilities at large shopping center and simple traffic survey of a large-scale event in Gotemba, Shizuoka prefecture, core city in transportation, logistics and tourism.
