TTIplaces
Why Standardised Touristic Locations?
Travellers need to find the right property in the right place. The issue is that suppliers use different names for the same geographic location. TTIplaces are aligned with how consumers search today. There are no predefined structures limiting which places a hotel can be found. With 1st screen relevance, customers only see properties relevant to the places they want to search. The improved user experience means less consumer frustration.
The problem - suppliers use different geographies
What are TTIplaces?
A TTIplace is a non hierarchical geo structures – a polygon defining any geographic area. A place can be part of another place. A place can overlap with another place. A place can be associated with another place. A place can have different names & spellings. Properties can belong to as many places as it fits. There are no restrictions on what types of places can be created.
