Abstract
Film induced tourism is a recent phenomenon, which is rising increasing interest in tourism management and promotion. A research project on this topic is currently investigated at the Department of Cultural Heritage of the University of Padova, with the aim of developing a software architecture for promoting film-induced tourism. One of the challenges in the development of such system was the design of a suitable model to capture the concept of movie and all the related information. This paper presents the design and implementation of this model: how the entity of movie and its related information have been represented, how the design reflects the special needs and purposes of the system, how a database was implemented and populated and the outcomes of the developed software.
