1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

During the COVID-19 outbreak, tracing immigrants arriving in India from overseas was
extremely difficult for the Indian government. It was crucial to monitor the movements
and potential exposure of people arriving in India from other countries as the virus
spread across the globe. However, a number of issues made the tracing procedure
difficult, from the passengers' imprecise information to the restricted testing capacity
and variances in travel patterns. To ensure precise tracing and efficient containment
measures, these issues demanded creative tactics and coordinated efforts.

Our project is a comprehensive platform designed to revolutionize the travel experience

for visitors coming to India, while also providing support to immigrants and facilitating
efficient data management for the government. By integrating a wide range of features
and leveraging cutting-edge technology, our platform serves as a one-stop solution for
travellers, offering essential information, personalized recommendations, and
convenient access to services.

Our platform's unique identification method, which uses passport numbers or creates
traveller-specific IDs, is one of its primary features. Due to the effective data
management and tracking made possible by this, we are able to seamlessly integrate
health data and guarantee the security of international travellers. We promote the
general health of travellers and uphold a secure environment by confirming health
statuses and halting the transmission of infectious diseases.

The technology we employ not only aids in tracing but also collects valuable data on the
travel patterns of foreign travellers. This data is harnessed to provide personalized travel
recommendations, enhancing the user experience by offering tailored suggestions based
on individual preferences, previous travel history, and interests.

The government benefits from the robust data management system, allowing them to
monitor and manage foreign travellers effectively, enforce regulations, and conduct
contact tracing when necessary. Hospitals can access relevant health information,
ensuring timely medical assistance and tracking the health status of travellers. Police
stations can utilize the platform to enhance safety and security measures. Moreover,
travellers benefit from the convenience of accessing comprehensive information,
personalized recommendations, and essential services through a single platform.

Travelers will greatly benefit from our platform's comprehensive range of features. They
will have access to detailed information about tourist places, restaurants, transportation
options, and local guides, allowing them to plan their itineraries with ease and make
informed decisions. The personalized recommendations based on their preferences and
travel history will enhance their overall experience, ensuring that they discover the best
attractions and activities that match their interests.

Additionally, the platform's integration with travel booking services enables seamless
bookings for flights, accommodations, and transportation, simplifying the entire travel
planning process. With offline access to maps and guides, real-time updates on
availability and operating hours, and the ability to share their experiences with fellow
travellers through social integration, our platform offers a user-centric approach that
enhances convenience, engagement, and enjoyment throughout their journey in India.
By fostering collaboration and information sharing among stakeholders, we create a
seamless and efficient travel ecosystem. Our platform promotes engagement between
travellers, service providers, and the government, leading to enhanced safety, improved
travel experiences, and greater efficiency in managing travel-related data.

In summary, our project revolutionizes the travel experience by providing a

comprehensive platform that integrates essential information, personalized
recommendations, and convenient services for travellers. Leveraging technology, we
facilitate efficient data management, ensure health tracking, and contribute to the
overall safety and well-being of travellers. By serving as a central hub for stakeholders in
the travel ecosystem, we create a collaborative environment that benefits travellers,
service providers, and the government alike.

4. SUB SYSTEM 1: USER INTERFACE

REQUIREMENT ANALYSIS:

Incredible India App is an innovative project of the Ministry of Tourism under the
Incredible India campaign to assist the international and domestic tourist in India.This
initiative was an instant hit when launched in 2002 and managed to generate 16 percent
increase in tourism in the first year itself.

Before the onset of this application it was difficult for tourists to know about the places
they visit, which places to visit and so on. But after this app, it was easy for them.

But during covid it was difficult for travelers to go out, know their basic requirements
and it was also tough for the government to locate the travelers coming from different
places. Hence it is necessary for an upgrade in this application with relevant features.

BUSINESS OBJECTIVES:

● To add new features to the already existing Incredible India application.

● To show travelers safest places to visit and different modes of transport to reach
them along with the timings.
● To show nearby places like the presence of police stations, banks, ATMs, movie
theaters, and hospitals.
● To show different tourist places to visit in each locality, with details, tourist
reviews, local language, language converter facilities and facility to create an
itinerary each day.
● To help the government have access to local guides, details of tourists, police
stations nearby so as to reduce the crime rate and ensure safety for travelers.

ASSUMPTIONS:

● This application will be useful for travelers coming from any country or within
the country.
● The user interface is provided such that it can be easily handled by anyone and
can be a one-stop solution for all travelers.
● Every traveler is registered to the application using their national identities and
those are in turn verified.
● The traveler does not submit using fake documents.
 ● All the details of the travelers are protected.
● The application and its interface will be updated once every two weeks based on
relevant changes happening around.

MODULES/ FUNCTIONALITIES:

5. SUB SYSTEM 2: DATABASE

REQUIREMENT ANALYSIS

Maintaining a database to track disease spread can provide several benefits and play a
crucial role in managing public health emergencies. Reasons like early detection and
response, monitoring and surveillance, identification of hotspots. This knowledge helps
authorities implement focused measures such as localized testing, quarantine, or travel
restrictions to contain the spread of the disease. By analyzing travel patterns researchers
can develop models and forecasts to understand the trajectory of travel pattern across
the country. This information aids in resource planning, healthcare capacity
management, and decision-making by policymakers.
TRAVELER’S DATA

General Data:

Basic data of travellers like Name, Age, country, passport number, budget, duration of
stay, preferred places of visit, mobile number etc will be collected and the content will be
curated based on the details provided, the history of previous travellers with similar
preferences and their feedback.

Travel History:

The details about travel that can be collected to create a database include the traveller’s
full name, date of birth, gender, nationality, passport/identification number, contact
details, travel itinerary, accommodation, visa and immigration information,
health-related information, travel purpose, travel group or family members traveling
together, and travel history for a specified period.

Mode of Travel data:

● For air travel, collect flight details including departure and arrival airports, flight
numbers, and dates/times of travel.
● For train travel, note train details such as name or number, departure and arrival
stations, and travel dates/times, as well as the class of travel.
● For bus travel, record the bus operator's name, departure and arrival locations,
bus type (AC, Non-AC, Sleeper, Seater), and scheduled departure/arrival times.
● For metro rail, gather information about the specific metro system, departure and
arrival stations, fare details, and operational hours/frequency.
● For taxi or cab services, document the service provider's name, pick-up and
drop-off locations, taxi type (Regular, Sedan, SUV), and fare details (metered or
fixed rates). Finally, for auto-rickshaws, include relevant information such as the
auto-rickshaw details, pick-up and drop-off locations, and fare details.

These collected details can serve as a useful guide for all traveller’s navigating the modes
of transport available in India.

Business Objective:

To enhance their travel experience, increase customer satisfaction, differentiate the

business from competitors, generate additional revenue through complementary
services, build a positive brand image, and stimulate word-of-mouth marketing. By
offering personalized recommendations, businesses aim to establish long-term
relationships, maximize customer engagement and retention, and also provide a
platform to track possible epidemic outbreaks due to foreign diseases.

Assumptions:

● The travellers would use online mode of payment for the majority of their
payments considering the difficulty in carrying cash and ease of payment using
UPI.
● Privacy and confidentiality of the travellers will be maintained and will be used
for on a necessary basis.
● Travelers value local insights, the app should leverage the knowledge of local
experts or trusted sources to curate recommendations and offer authentic
experiences that go beyond mainstream attractions.

6. High-Level System Architecture

ER DIAGRAM

The ER Diagram displays the relationship of entity sets stored in a database & explains
the logical structure of the database. It is primarily composed of entities, attributes and
relationships

DATA FLOW DIAGRAM

The Data flow diagram represents the flow of data and processes in the travel booking
system. Two external entities are at the highest level: Foreign Travelers and System
Administrators. The Travel Booking System’s primary function interacts with these
external entities. The Travel Booking System is further divided into sub-processes that
handle specific tasks. These include Ticket Booking, Hotel Booking, Final place details
and Local Guide Booking. In the Ticket Booking sub-process, foreign travellers can select
travel dates, choose destinations, check availability, and make reservations for their
travel tickets. The Hotel Booking sub-process allows them to search for hotels, check
availability, make reservations, and handle accommodation payments. The local guide
sub process helps in choosing the appropriate guide for the customer and the customers
can view the reviews before booking them. The final place details includes some basic
details about the destination like the local rules and regulations, do and don’t on that
place.

The below are the two data flow diagrams, the first one depicts the booking of various
services and the second data flow diagram represents a basic overview of the services
offered by the system.

USE CASE DIAGRAM
