The convergence of social media and GIS provides an opportunity to reconcile space-based GIS and place-based social media. For this purpose, the authors conduct an empirical study in Columbus, Ohio, aiming to enrich both the spatial and platial context of geo-tagged data, using location-based social media Foursquare checkins as an example. An exploratory analytical approached is used to enrich the geographic context of social media data in both space and place. Specifically, exploratory spatial data analysis and point of interest matching are applied to analyze about 50,000 checkins crawled from social media feeds. It is found that checkins tend to be spatially clustered near the center of the city. Popular places related to food, services, and retail shopping venues are more likely to be reported by social media users. The authors also conducted platial analysis of the top 25 popular place venues in the study area.

Residents’ activity space reflects multiple aspects of human life related to space, time, and type of activity. How to measure the activity space at multiple geographic scales remains a problem to be solved. Recently, the emergence of big data such as mobile phone data and point of interest data has brought access to massive geo-tagged datasets to identify human activity at multiple geographic scales and to explore the relationship with built environment. In this research, we propose a new method to measure three types of urban residents’ activity spaces—i.e., maintenance activity space, commuting activity space, and recreational activity space—using mobile phone data. The proposed method identifies the range of three types of residents’ activity space at multiple geographic scales and analyzing the relationship between the built environment and activity space. The research takes Zhuhai City as its case study and discovers the spatial patterns for three activity space types. The proposed method enables us to achieve a better understanding of the human activities of different kinds, as well as their relationships with the built environment.

The technology development affects people activites especially in this 20th century. Mobile phone ischanged into smartphone and travelling becomes a new lifestlye. A Tourism scheduler with a reminder is created from this research to fulfill the new trend of people lifestyle. The travelling data is stored in the system and some information such as the point of interest of an area, hotel, and transportation to reach the area are provided. Waterfall model becomes the method to build this system. Hence, an application that can create a trip for the user is completely built in Blackberry application system, consist of the trip information. The history feature provided in this application can be an advantange for the user to choose the new travelling destination. Moreover, the application has a good interface follow the eight golden rules and has a good performance that helps the tourists/users to create their own schedule and set the reminder for them.
