The world of travel: a comparative analysis of classification methods

A. Gilbert, M. Gordon, Marcin Paprzycki, J. Wright

Abstract


In this paper we look at the ways leading Internet content providers such as Yahoo! and Google categorize travel-related web resources, and contrast their methods to an alternate scheme underlying the business-communication specification of the Open Travel Alliance.

In formulating a new classification scheme for travel resources we attempt to take advantage of the strengths and improve on the weaknesses of existing systems.
