Mobile Strategy and Solutions for the Travel Industry

Understand Mobile
Mobility is changing the way consumers see the world, and travel industry is on the forefront of that change.
We know how to create a mobile strategy that will drive the business metrics that are important to you.
Mobile is not a department. It is a sweeping change in the way businesses operate, and the time is now.
Find Your Audience
Mobility is an investment into new ways to interact with customers - whenever, wherever.
It is also the most personal communications channel ever. This is an opportunity to always bring relevant messaging to the right audience.
And in the long run, it is your audience that will find you.
Manage Your Content
Our Destination Management System (DMS) has been designed to cope with the full diversity of all information related to each travel destination.
With DMS you can manage all your new and existing content (text, images, videos, locations) and build the structure of your mobile applications.
The content is managed in a tree hierarchy enabling easy processing.

Indoor Maps and Navigation
A full stack toolchain to enable indoor maps on mobile applications has always been a crucial part of our technology stack.

The technology leadership in this area has led us to close extensive partnerships with numerous indoor positioning technology companies and with Navteq, whose Destination Maps™ product brings a global database of shopping mall, airport and other indoor maps to our customers. This combination of specialized technology, real world experience and extensive partnerships make Whatamap the provider of choice for any indoor mapping related project anywhere in the world. |
