Abstract

The application of an app to guide visitors to specific exhibits within Edinburgh Zoo is described. The value of this app to both the visitor and to the zoo management was recognised in a case study. Subsequent discussions with the zoo identified a range of further benefits that could be afforded by technological solutions of this type. The most important of these are discussed.
