Enhancing Tourist Experiences: Matsumoto City Partners with Infomotion for Event Data Integration
In a significant move to improve tourist experiences, Matsumoto City has initiated a partnership with Infomotion, a leading company in event data integration. This collaboration is set to enhance the official tourist information site, "Matsumoto Tabi no Shirabe," providing visitors with streamlined access to various events occurring in the city.
Since the establishment of the previous official tourism website, "Shin Matsumoto Monogatari" in 2006, Matsumoto City has been actively promoting local events through a public-private partnership known as the "Shin Matsumoto Monogatari Project." Over the last two decades, the rise of social media and various web platforms has transformed how event information is disseminated. With the increasing number of inbound tourists and diversifying interests, the demand for comprehensive and reliable event information has surged. Additionally, the operational burden of managing event announcements has posed challenges for the city. To address these needs, Matsumoto City has transferred the operational responsibilities of its official tourism site to the Matsumoto Tourism and Convention Association.
The primary goal of this partnership is to leverage Infomotion's "AI Event Information Aggregation Service". This innovative service will facilitate the automatic collection of diverse event details from the web, which will then be integrated into "Matsumoto Tabi no Shirabe." By doing so, the workload on association staff concerning event information dissemination will significantly decrease, allowing them to focus more on decision-making and expanding tourist engagement. The aim is to enhance the overall visitor experience in Matsumoto, increase the duration of their stay, and ensure greater satisfaction during their time exploring the city.
1. Automated Collection of Event Information
Infomotion's AI technology will automatically gather event information shared across various online platforms, including municipal websites, regional agencies, tourism associations, and personal blogs. This comprehensive approach ensures a wide array of events is covered, catering to different interests.
2. Verification of Information
After the AI collects the data, Infomotion's team will manually verify it to prevent any incorrect information from being published on the site. This step is crucial to maintaining the credibility of the event listings.
3. Approval and Automatic Publication
Once the information is verified, the Matsumoto Tourism and Convention Association staff will make the final decision on whether to publish the details on the website. Using an API, the approved events will then be automatically listed on "Matsumoto Tabi no Shirabe." This integration streamlines the process and reduces the need for extensive manual work by the association staff. Future developments may allow Infomotion to take over the approval process, further enhancing efficiency.
Infomotion is committed to making event information accessible to everyone. By fostering an environment where people can easily find and participate in events, the company aims to enrich lives, increase mobility, and invigorate communities.
