Abstract EN
The main purpose of this study is to develop an APP by integrating GPS to provide the digitized information of local cultural spots to guide tourists for tourism promotion and the digitized information of mountaineering trails to monitor energy expenditure (EE) for health promotion.
The provided cultural information is also adopted for educational purpose.
Extended Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) was used to evaluate the usefulness and behavior intention of the provided information and functions in the developed system.
Most users agreed that the system is useful for health promotion, tourism promotion, and folk-culture education.
They also showed strong intention and positive attitude toward continuous use of the APP.
