Desenvolvimento de aplicativo móvel em android para auxílio aos turistas: meu guia

Abstract

For many years traveling and seeing new places is part of our lives. Being well informed to arrive in unknown places, can make the tours more enjoyable experiences. Moreover, having a good planning about what you want to know, it is indispensable these days as there are many options available and there is often no time to know everything. At this point, tools that can provide information about the attractions of popular destinations, can become great allies. The application proposed here, My Guide, propose just that. Guide the tourist through a base of information on sights regions and contributions from other application users who opine and comment on attractions from their experiences in travel. To meet this demand we propose a software for Android integrated into an online database of tourist information managed by a web application. As all the exchange of data between the mobile application and the remote database made via a web service. During the development of the solution, several software development techniques were applied: requirements gathering, architecture definition, UML modeling, software development and testing, all within an iterative-incremental development methodology. In the end, a very promising application was obtained that with some refinements, may in the near future be offered in the mobile applications market.
