“…This model should allow the identification of spatial context information in view of their exploitation to make gaming applications aware of the gamer's context, whatever the game, the mobile platform and the playing area. The existing models in the literature [9,10,13] are primarily adapted to the application framework in which they were designed. So none of them is usable as suchin our work.…”

“…Today, several tools meet some of these criteria, free or commercial, open source or not. They are mainly based on the combination of HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript technologies to address the multi-platforms issue: jQTouch 8 , Phonegap 9 , Rhomobile Rhodes 10 or Sencha Touch 11 . According to our criteria, we chose to use Sencha Touch, one of the most popular free tools, under GNU GPL v3 license.…”

“…However, the provided solutions donot allow the spatial context management in a multi-player environment as wanted by the games set in the GeoEduc3D project. The proposed context models [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] are not applicable to serious interactive games with use of smartphones in a multi-player environment. In addition, there is no remote and interoperable system for data exchange between mobile platforms (sensors and client applications) in such an environment.…”

The GeoEduc3D project aims to provide educational games for smartphones based on Geomatics and use augmented reality techniques in order to make these games more immersive. To improve the immersive and interactive aspects of those games, we focused on the exploitation of spatial context in this particular application framework (serious games, augmented reality, smart phones, and multi-users environment). Our work has thus led to the design of a solution dedicated to the management of spatial context in a multi-players environment on and for smartphones. Several contributions have been made: modeling spatial context, proposing a service-oriented architecture to manage this context, defining a Web Service Spatial Context (WSCS) and implementation of a WSCS prototype and a mobile client according to an environment exploiting FourSquare, a geo-social application.
