Series: Geo Informatics ; June 2004, 46-49(3)Publication details: 2004Subject(s): Summary: Many rural communities are attempting to develop their eco-tourism potential. Tourism in these areas and particularly in national parks and nature reserves can be regarded as a very important but also very sensitive economic issue. It is believed that by using new geo-multimedia technologies for the presentation of tourist information about rural areas, sustainable development in these regions will be enhanced. Innovative strategies for the presentation of tourist information need to consider the spatial context of data and have to be optimised for important target groups.
