This book brings together multi-disciplinary research and practical evidence about the role and exploitation of big data in driving and supporting innovation in tourism. It also provides a consolidated framework and roadmap summarising the major issues that both researchers and practitioners have to address for effective big data innovation. The book proposes a process-based model to identify and implement big data innovation strategies in tourism. This process framework consists of four major parts: 1) inputs required for big data innovation; 2) processes required to implement big data innovation; 3) outcomes of big data innovation; and 4) contextual factors influencing big data exploitation and advances in big data exploitation for business innovation.

First, you'll learn how to look at building components and materials inside and out, evaluating: structural materials; heating, electrical, and plumbing systems; aesthetics and light; the site; movement of people and traffic; and ecological considerations. Then, you'll learn why research is important and why you need to be familiar with particular building types - hospitals, museums, manufacturing facilities, airports, libraries, office buildings, and mixed-use structures - before you even think about designing. And you'll take a look at building codes and local zoning ordinances. After a thorough grounding in the physical, you'll meet that all-important client and learn how to find out what they really want as you develop a list of goals, problems to be solved, and design requirements. You'll learn how to brainstorm with the client and discover why it's important to involve the client in the design process from beginning to end.

This book is a grand probe into the dynamic and evolving nature of strategic marketing in the hospitality and tourism industry. Strategic dimensions of marketing are presented and Internet is treated as an important part of the strategic marketing iceberg to promote a hybrid marketing stance by incorporating traditional marketing techniques. Multiple components of marketing are identified to formulate a strategic online marketing model that is resilient and holds potential to adapt as contemporary environments change. This book is unique in that it proposes a broader treatment of online marketing initiatives by integrating its various dimensions and treating social media both as a cash cow and as a crucial investment tool within an integrated tourism system environment. Special insights are offered on sustainability perspectives/initiatives, contemporary social media marketing strategies, and growth of mobile systems. The distinct characteristics of this piece of scholarly work lie in its: 1) update of the most recent progress made in the field of strategic marketing with special emphasis on online marketing strategies, 2) presentation of a strategic online marketing model that embraces a holistic tourism systems approach, 3) offering global insights into the manner strategic on-line marketing perspectives are pursued by different tourism sectors, and 4) developing a smart marketing paradigm that integrates different tourism sectors to promote value chain offerings in a sustainable manner. Particularly, this book makes a unique contribution to existing literature by furthering the strategic online marketing model to embrace a smart systems perspective.
