- Traveler should be able to select a wide range of packages available or should be able to create their own tour plan using an interactive map and sent it to all the tour operators.
CURRENT SYSTEM AND CHALLENGES
Some of the key challenges faced during the course of the project were:- Users are allowed to search using destination names and keywords but if the key words existed in packages description, destinations description, shopping location description, festival description and events description the result retrieval and display which should include all the results which matched was a major challenge
- Users had to plan their tour using an interactive map ie user should be able to draw line from one location to another which he/she has chosen and after completion most optimized path should be displayed.
WAIRS SOLUTION
- The search results are retrieved using full text search and results are displayed in such a manner to meet all the challenges.
