Abstract

In this diploma thesis is described information system that offers users presentation of points of interest. Whole system is represented by two subsystems. First subsystem is server-side application that collects data and offers it to mobile clients. Code for server-side system is written in programming language Java with help of widgets from frame work Vaadin. Server collects data from web service for points of interest named WikiLocation and weather service wunderground. Sever is running on Apache TomCat. Mobile client is second subsystem. Application is build for Android smart phones and therefore written in Java. Mobile client connects to server and fetches data from it. Application represent data with user friendly presentation, that is very helpful in city tours. Mobile application offers users augmented reality view of interesting points near him.
