Tourism 2.0
Social computing and web 2.0 became a whole new paradigm of interaction between every actor in the web and they are actively influencing online content and services delivery. CSP for Tourism offers features like social recommendations, tagging, blogs, wikis, surveys, RSS. Join the big 2.0 conversation!
Robust information architecture
Three central questions are key for visitors: what, when and where. This is the core of the information architecture of a destination portal.
Instead of a classic hierarchical structure, CSP for Tourism provides a matrix model linking tourism topics with editorial formats and services as a more efficient way to organize content. Every piece of content is structurally linked to different classifications and therefore it can be accessed through different navigation paths depending on user’s diverse needs.
Multilingual & translation services
CSP for Tourism dramatically enhances MOSS 2007 out-of-box multilingual capabilities. It also includes a translation platform integrated with external translation services companies such as Lionbridge.
Travel planner
This feature enables quick personalization of content based on identified tourism trends and needs. It also provides a tool for users to freely bookmark information while browsing touristic content.
Geo-tagged information
Georeferenced access to content is becoming a predominant way to retrieve information. This is not only about maps or driving directions but also about a full range of services and information that can be extremely relevant when technology is aware of user’s current or future location (where I am / where I am going to).

CSP for Tourism is also available for Microsoft Surface, allowing best user experience for tourists on Tourism Information Points.
