Abstract
The Internet is more and more emerging as some kind of travel agent. This is since, for the tourist industry, it represents a perfect platform to bring products and services to the customer in a direct way. However, Web-based tourist information systems are required not to offer online brochures only, but rather to provide both, value and service. One of the first Web-based tourist information systems which has recognised this fact was TIScover. TIScover is a tourist information and booking system based on Internet and database technology. Some of the main origin concepts of TIScover are outlined in the following.
