Abstract

This study describes the development of a Web and mobile application to know tourist attractions in the province of Pichincha, offering a different option to the visitor. This proposal is based on the observation of the existence of interesting tourist attractions in the indicated province, or with limited accessibility, only for 4x4 vehicles, because not all roads in the country are Paved. However, many tourists are looking for just that kind of emotion, but when they don't know them, they don't visit such places. The application is to provide the user to mark any place (node) that will activate a trajectory in Google Maps. In addition, the application will provide clear and timely information about available tourist services (lodging, food and beverages, photographs of the attractiveness, what to see, among other important information for the visitor. The app designed, being oriented to smartphone users, will be intuitive for this, ignoring a user guide or manual, but it will contain the elementary options for the visitor to be guided without needing support. With this proposal, in short, it aspires to fill a technological vacuum that serves as practical assistance to the visitor with scarce information about the province of Pichincha.
