Location based Informationsystems

In the mid 90s, a colleague had a brand new Palm III, we were waiting on a train station in a small Dutch city and began dreaming: what if we could use this Palm to get information about this location, about interesting places around the station and so on and so forth. Back at home we wrote a project proposal and we received funding for the MIA Project [4]. This was the beginning of a series of projects on this topic we want to describe in this paper. Recently, Raj Reddy and Jaime Carbonell, declared a new "Bill of Rights" of the Information Society [11], therein they claimed, that we should • get the right information, • to the right people, • at the right time, • in the right language, • with the right level of detail and • in the right medium. We feel that the project described in the following, contribute at least to some of these claims
