- Web 2.0 applications, now common in the tourism domain, make it easy to share travel related experiences and opinions, thus, leading to the creation of enormous amounts of user generated content. This type of tourist information must, however, be preprocessed by structuring and aggregating it in order to avoid overwhelming users. In this article we, therefore, propose a knowledge-based approach that exploits spatial proximity to annotate resources with qualitative semantic concepts for tourism products, such as proximity to a lake or opportunities for specific sporting activities. Finally, the article describes the successful prototypical implementation of the proposed technique and provides insight into a practical usage scenario
