Starting by describing two modern and well-known technologies today the thesis gives examples on how they can be implemented and a solution can be formed regarding the current technical knowledge. QR codes, GPS and a self-developed application from HAMK disclose different tools to approach the problem.
The main aim of the thesis is to evince a platform that visitors of public spaces can use technology in the nature and share thoughts and experiences through it.
The thesis answers research questions related to the topic and attempts to give information such as different technologies with their benefits or a solution for a platform to Smart Parks. Furthermore, it compares those developments and lists advantages and disadvantages of them.
