Abstract (German)
Entwicklung einer domainspezifische Suchmaschine für die Analyse der Informationssuche von Reisenden im Internet
Abstract (English)
This project focuses on the development of a domain-specific search function for analysing the information search behaviour of travellers on the Austrian National Tourist Office's website (www.austria.info). Various web usage mining procedures are implemented to better understand information needs of visitors of the ANTO portal. Findings of regular logfile analysis are included in the Tourism Marketing Information System TourMIS (see TourMIS project and www.tourmis.info).
