What is A Universal Approach That Makes Legacy Online Content Location-based about?
The growing popularity of location-based services for mobile smartphones requires web content to be assigned with location tags. In this paper we propose a simple yet powerful approach that assigns location information tags to online content that hasn't been originally assigned with such. The novel method first assesses if the content has any locationbased relevance and then assigns one or more location tags to it. It is a user-centric approach. This means that instead of analyzing the content itself, it uses the locations from where the content has been accessed from. It is hence universally applicable for any type of legacy online content, like text, pictures or videos. Finally we present a case study with a non location-based question and answer platform, to which we apply our approach and build a location-based, mobile system.
