Future of Location Based Services

Final Project

Introduction

In our group, we discussed the future of Location Based Services (LBS). LBS nowadays have a large potential, however, we discussed in which ways the technology and usage of LBS could develop. We establshed a System's Diagram which shows our driving forces and their interrelations with each other. After extensive discussions we decided to go for a matrix of uncertainties using two different key driving forces. According to this matrix we came up with four different scenarios.

Driving Forces

• Political / legal forces
• Economical forces
• Social forces
• Technological forces
• Environmental forces

Diagrams

• System's Diagram
• Matrix of Uncertainties

Scenarios

• Scenario 1: Dead Duck
• Scenario 2: Plain Practical Use
• Scenario 3: Sleeping Chameleon
• Scenario 4: Busy Bees
