Abstract

Nowadays, we are observing a huge revolution in the use of mobile equipment in all aspects of human life. They greatly facilitate our daily life by their numerous capabilities such as powerful processors and various embedded sensors. Reviewing the history of Geographic Information Science (GIS),one can clearly recognize that real time spatial processes have been the most important concern over the years. On the other hand, data gathering phase is the most time and cost consuming phase in most practical projects. Using traditional way to perform data gathering phase, not only causes some noticeable problems such as: the difficulty of carrying paper maps, inevitable human made mistakes; but also create a deep gap for hitting the main goal of performing a real time spatial process. In this study, by developing a context-aware mobile information system that takes advantage of distributed architecture, we try to deal with those problems. Our ultimate goal is to replace our developed system by traditional methods for gathering spatial and descriptive data about nuisance jobs in Kermanshah, Iran. We assess and compare our system with traditional methods by comparing their results for collected data in 4 districts in a city by different groups of users. Statistical tests prove our developed system has more reliability and efficiency compared with traditional methods. At the end, the tendency of about 92% of user to use our system compared with traditional methods is another measurethat indicates our success in achieving the ultimate goal of this study.
