Smart phones are becoming a gadget that almost every person has. This has caused businesses to work harder to make their applications and technologies run on mobile. Having the GPS integrated in mobile devices has also boosted the need for Geographic Information Systems (GIS) applications for mobiles. This is why mobile integration of applications is crucial especially with our Bestaurants project, since tourists will be browsing Bestaurants from their mobile most of the time.
The fact that we designed and coded our ArcGIS Web application in JavaScript API makes it easier for us to view it on mobile devices. JavaScript is supported on mobile devices and can be rendered nicely on small handheld devices.
