Abstract: A location presentation method includes calculating, by a processor, a time lag between time corresponding to a next agenda in an itinerary stored in a storage and calculation start time, extracting, by a processor, a first location to which it is possible to move for visiting from a current place within the time lag and from which it is possible to move to a second location corresponding to the next agenda; and outputting the first location.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a data acquisition program that causes a computer to execute a process including: identifying a position of a part to be extracted in a document that is associated with a specific URL and includes structural information of tags, the position being on a hierarchical structure of the tags included in the document, and allowing the position on the hierarchical structure to be registered; and accessing periodically or non-periodically the document associated with the specific URL, and extracting and outputting data corresponding to the registered position on the hierarchical structure of the tags.

Abstract: A site presentation method includes detecting a characteristic about a feeling for each of a plurality of sites based on a word in a document in each of the plurality of sites, using a processor. The site presentation method includes specifying, based on an access history of a certain user to any of the plurality of sites, a characteristic of a user about a feeling corresponding to the certain user based on a detected characteristic of a site accessed by the certain user, using the processor. The site presentation method includes extracting, from the plurality of sites, a site in which a characteristic that is the same as or similar to the specified characteristic of the user is detected, and presenting the extracted site to the certain user, using the processor.

Abstract: An itinerary comparing apparatus receives a designation of a plurality of sightseeing spots from a user or the like. After that, the itinerary comparing apparatus refers to an itinerary storage unit storing therein a plurality of pieces of travel package product information. Subsequently, the itinerary comparing apparatus extracts a piece of travel package product information including the plurality of sightseeing spots received from the user or the like as destinations, by referring to the itinerary storage unit. After that, the itinerary comparing apparatus presents the piece of travel package product information extracted from among the plurality of pieces of travel package product information stored in the itinerary storage unit, to the user or the like.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium stores a data acquisition program that causes a computer to execute a process including: extracting first data and second data that are separated from each other by a predetermined tag or symbol, from a document written in HTML; displaying the extracted first data and the extracted second data in an associated manner; and specifying a position of a tag included in the document on a hierarchical structure with respect to the first data or the second data in the document to allow registration of the position on the hierarchical structure, upon detecting that the displayed first data or the displayed second data is selected.

Abstract: An itinerary display device receives selection of a plurality of sightseeing spots via, for example, a web page displayed on a user terminal, and displays a list of the sightseeing spots together with images corresponding to the respective sightseeing spots. The itinerary determining device then allows one, some, or all of the sightseeing spots displayed in the list to be arranged at any position or positions within a time schedule field representing one day or a plurality of days. Thereafter, the itinerary determining device displays, in correspondence with the arranged sightseeing spot, a clock time that corresponds to the position at which the sightseeing spot has been arranged.

Abstract: An automatic page-editing apparatus collects information about a tourist spot from each of a plurality of sites and displays the information arranged in block units in one page. The automatic page-editing apparatus determines blocks each displayed as being contained in an area in the page displayed by the display unit when no block in the area is scrolled. Thereafter, the automatic page-editing apparatus calculates attention levels, each of which depends on a time duration when no block is scrolled, of the determined blocks. The automatic page-editing apparatus selects a block to be directly accommodated in the one page in accordance with the calculated attention levels.
