Abstract
Research into the ancient topography of the historical center of Athens has produced a rich archive database. Augmented reality technology is also becoming more and more accessible to the public as most mobile devices nowadays can support it. In this publication, the effort to build the augmented reality application “Virtual Street Museum” to highlight the information contained in aforementioned database is analyzed. The application provides a personalized experience for the user by creating a route, in the historical center of Athens, adapted to her personal choices. This route includes points with augmented reality scenes where the user can see the information of the ancient topography in an impressive way. Finally, an attempt to construct a time estimation algorithm for the walking tour was made. This algorithm also adapts to each user by data collected from her use of the application providing a personalized experience.
