Find out which information can be extracted from Open Street Maps in order to design the user profile/item profile used by the recommendation system.

The following website was used to check which OSM tags are used frequently by user to see which are suitable to be used for the classificastion of points of interests: https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys The item profile consists of the item id to identify the point as well as the membership(boolean) to the following categories: culture, sightseeing, food, nightlife, sports and nature. The user profile is designed accordingly: the boolean categories represent if the user is interested in a certain feature. The feature space between item profile and user profile must be identical because of the content based recommendation.

An extension of the user/item profile should be realized during the course of this project in order to refine the recommendation mechanism.
