Abstract:In last decade, expansion of mobile phones increased people's usage of these devices. In parallel with the increasing usage rate, the number of developed applications increased for mobile phones. Thanks to mobile phones, many different fields have been affected. However, the biggest contributions of mobile phones are orientation and location finder services. Although people spend major time of their life in indoor areas, usage of navigation systems must be outdoors since these systems get coordinate information from satellites. In indoor areas, walls, and any object in a building cause wrong results or block navigation systems. In this study, orientation and location finder services for indoor navigation will be done by using accelerometer, compass and camera that have been already included in the phones and augmented reality technology for iOS based mobile phones and locations will be provided thanks to beacon Bluetooth devices.

“…Goodchild also points out that this method of collecting information can be much more cost-effective compared to traditional ways of collecting data that involve expensive equipment and highly-paid experts. In addition, the widespread availability of smartphones, location-based services (LBS) and social networks facilitate the creation and sharing of geographic information in real time (Chon & Cha, 2011;Goodchild & Glennon, 2010). These features of VGI imply great potential, as the location information attached to 311 reports can be visualized and analyzed to improve urban planning, management and operations processes, particularly to reveal issues that may not be detected using conventional methods, such as dead animals and unusual odors (Johnson, 2010;Naphade, Banavar, Harrison, Paraszczak, & Morris, 2011;Offenhuber, 2014).…”

Characterizing New Channels of Communication: A Case Study of Municipal 311 Requests in Edmonton, Canada

City governments around the world are developing and expanding how they connect to citizens. Technologies play an important role in making this connection, and one frequent way that cities connect with citizens is through 311-style request systems. 311 is a non-emergency municipal notification system that uses telephone, email, web forms, and increasingly, mobile applications to allow citizens to notify government of infrastructure issues and make requests for municipal services. In many ways, this process of citizen contribution mirrors the provision of volunteered geographic information, that is spatially-referenced user generated content. This research presents a case study of the city of Edmonton, Canada, an early adopter of multi-channel 311 service request systems, including telephone, email, web form, and mobile app 311 request channels. Three methods of analysis are used to characterize and compare these different channels over three years of request data; a comparison of relative request share for each channel, a spatial hot spot analysis, and regression models to compare channel usage with sociodemographic variables. The results of this study indicate a shift in channel usage from traditional to Internet-enabled, that this shift is mirrored in the hotspots of request activity, and that specific digital inequalities exist that reinforce this distinction between traditional and Internetenabled reporting channels.

“…A smartphone is an appropriate device to infer user context because data on the frequent interactions between users and their devices can be easily collected using various kinds of embedded sensors. Furthermore, a smartphone makes it possible to generate and use social context, in addition to individual context, through Internet connectivity [7].…”

“…The programmability of smartphones gives a possibility to turn the devices into data collection platforms providing detailed information on user's smartphone usage habits [6]. The widespread dissemination of smartphones has enabled pervasive sensing environments that allow collecting and capturing the user's context, which refers to information that can help characterize a user's activity or status in a given situation [7].…”

Smart mobile devices (smartphones) represent an important factor in access to information and communications networks. The wide population of users with different demands is using smart mobile devices in many contexts. The context of use of smart mobile devices represents a joint impact of smart mobile devices and mobile applications, used information and communications services and the user's environment. The integration of smart mobile devices into user's everyday life is the background for the development of the conceptual model that will make conclusions about their habits and patterns of their behavior based on the collected data. The data analysis can determine user's affiliation to a particular segment of users. This paper will analyze new system for measurement, data analysis and reporting of the use of smart mobile devices and related information and communication services, depending on the context of use.
