The processor 222 included in the server 150 may include a setting unit 310, a searching unit 320, and a providing unit 330 as shown in FIG. The components of such a processor 222 may be implemented to execute steps 410 through 430 included in the method of FIG. 4 through at least one program code with an operating system that includes the memory 221.

In step 410, the setting unit 310 can set the travel propensity and the travel plan of the user using the service. In this case, the travel propensity refers to the purpose or form of the travel preferred or pursued by the user, and the travel plan includes the schedule of the travel planned by the user, the type of the group (form of personnel), the number of persons, And so on. Travel propensity and travel plan can be used as a filtering criterion for searching tourist information according to user's preference. For example, the setting unit 310 can directly derive the user's travel propensity through the step-by-step psychological test logic and automatically set it. As another example, the setting unit 310 may set the propensity information of the user selected or inputted from the entire travel propensity as the travel propensity of the user. As another example, it is also possible that the setting unit 310 analyzes and sets a user's travel propensity by utilizing information related to a user on the Internet. For example, after collecting posts of blogs that are operated by users or frequently visited, analyzing the contexts or tags included in the posts, users can derive preferred travel propensities. In addition, the setting unit 310 may directly select or input the specific condition of the planned trip from the user through the user terminal, and set the travel plan of the user.

In operation 420, the search unit 320 may search the tourist information according to the preference of the user by combining the travel propensity of the user and the travel plan. The tourist information to be searched includes contents related to travel, and may include information about at least one individual travel point, or a plurality of individual travel points may include information about a path that has been coked. The tourist information can be constructed in a database including information (for example, category, tag, and the like) that can be classified according to the purpose or type of travel as well as criteria for classifying the travel propensity of the user. The tourist information stored in the database may include detailed travel information such as tourist sites (individual travel points or travel courses), sightseeing periods, conditions of use, available travel means, and the like. Furthermore, in establishing the tourist information database, in addition to the category information for classifying the information in each of the tourist information, the emotion tag indicating the tendency of the sightseeing place may be included. At this time, the emotional tag may be directly set by the provider providing the tourist information, or may be determined by the automatic tag setting technique. For example, when a document containing tourist information is posted on a blog, the inclination of the blog can be analyzed from the entire document posted on the blog, and the inclination of the blog can be set as the emotional tag of the tourist information.

The search unit 320 may generate a filtering condition including a travel propensity of the user and a travel plan to select the tourist information matching the filtering condition among the tourist information on the database. At this time, the search unit 320 can sort the tourist information classified by the criteria corresponding to the travel propensity of the user and at the same time, at least a part of the detailed travel information matches the travel condition of the user. Furthermore, the search unit 320 may search the customized tourist information by including the local conditions such as the weather and the event schedule in the filtering condition. For example, the search unit 320 may search the area of the clear weather or the area of the weather preferred by the user on the basis of the forecast corresponding to the travel schedule of the user. As another example, the search unit 320 may search an area where the local event schedule overlaps at least a part of the user's travel schedule. In addition, the search unit 320 can also filter out tourism information of an area having a specific issue such as an infectious disease such as a human being or a livestock or various disasters from a search target. Accordingly, the search unit 320 can acquire a more precise search result value as the user-customized tourist information by combining the travel propensity of the user, the travel plan, and the local situation.

In step 430, the provider 330 may provide at least one tourist information included in the search result to the user terminal as a recommended travel destination. In other words, the provider 330 may filter the travel propensity and the travel plan of the user and provide the recommended travel destination information matching the user's preference as a result of the search. At this time, the search result is sorted based on the popularity based on the review of the travel information page of the tourist information, the number of visitors, the number of visitors who visited the actual travel destination, or the like, It is also possible. The sorting criteria of the recommended destination information is illustrative and not limited to this.

The providing unit 330 may provide a function for the user to select a tool necessary for traveling and configure the home page of the service page. The providing unit 330 may provide a list of menus such as a route search, an exchange rate calculator, an interpreter, a weather view, and the like. A menu selected by the user may be configured as a widget menu at the bottom of the home screen . For this purpose, the setting unit 310 may set a widget menu list selected by the user in association with the user, and the providing unit 330 may check the setting of the user when the user accesses the home screen, You can configure the home screen widget menu with the set menu list. The providing unit 330 can provide weather information of the area corresponding to the user's current location through the service screen including the recommended travel destination information. If the user registers the travel destination in the travel plan, Can be provided. At this time, the weather information of the travel destination may provide a forecast during the travel schedule registered in the travel plan, or may provide the time zone forecast, the week forecast, and the like based on the current point of view.

Furthermore, the providing unit 330 may provide a tool for the user to create a travel route of the user by editing the travel course or travel point using the recommended travel destination information. For example, the provider 330 may provide a list of recommended travel destinations to the user, and then provide a map including points corresponding to destinations selected from the list of recommended travel destinations by the user. It is possible to create a travel course based on a user gesture in which each point is dragged on the map and connected directly.

Therefore, the providing unit 330 may provide recommended travel destination information according to the preference of the user by combining various information. In providing the recommended travel destination information, various tools necessary for traveling may be provided together with the home page of the service page can do.

5 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a method for deriving a travel propensity of a user in an embodiment of the present invention.

In step 501, the setting unit 310 determines whether the user terminal requests an automatic test for the travel propensity or requests manual setting.

In step 502, the setting unit 310 may provide a step-by-step test query for analyzing the travel propensity when an automatic test request for the travel propensity is received from the user terminal. For example, the setting unit 310 sequentially provides a multiple-choice query in which one of two or more selection items can be selected as an answer, and provides a query of the next step when an answer is input to each query.

In step 503, the setting unit 310 may compute the travel propensity of the user by collecting the answers inputted by the user when the answer input for all queries is completed. For example, the setting unit 310 defines a score range for each travel propensity and an answer score for each query, and determines a travel propensity corresponding to the score by obtaining a sum of scores according to an answer by a user's query . For example, the travel propensity can be classified as adventure type, novice type, urban type, domestic type, entertainment type, free type, group type, historical type, item type, simple type, emperor type, high type, mountain type, natural type, , Recreation type, special type, gourmet type, Oji type, and comprehensive type.

The above classification of travel propensity and the test query are illustrative and can be defined based on design data synthesized by a psychologist or the like. The questionnaire for the analysis of travel propensity can be composed of U & A (usage & attitude) items that derive similar clusters through DISC items for personality type diagnosis and attitude items related to travel and identify preferred travel destinations for each community. In this case, the personality type can be derived through commonly used DISC analysis, and it can be classified into four types of behavior (dominant type, social type, stable type, and prudent type) by measuring the essential personality domain. A group based on the travel attitude can use the items to understand the attitude of the usual travel, and the travel related U & A consists of the items that can be used to identify the information source, companion, travel expenses, .

In step 504, the setting unit 310 may provide a list including a predefined total travel propensity so that manual setting of the travel propensity can be manually performed when a manual setting request for the propensity to travel is received from the user terminal have.

In step 505, the setting unit 310 may set at least one travel propensity manually selected by the user in the travel propensity list to the travel propensity of the user.
