CampusTours Integrates RSS Building Events Feeds

Auburn, ME [October 15, 2015] CampusTours Inc. announced today that the CampusTours AnyMap service and the AnyTour service have integrated RSS event feeds to allow CampusTours interactive maps and virtual tours to feature a localized listing of upcoming events in each campus building panel.

CampusTours Events Integration Examples: (more coming soon)

• The George Washington University AnyTour: virtualtour.gwu.edu
• EXAMPLE EVENTS FEED FOR GWU LIBRARY: http://tinyurl.com/gwu-gelman-events

The CampusTours AnyMap & AnyTour integration of RSS events feeds allows CampusTours clients to easily integrate upcoming events into their interactive map panels for each building, as well as facilities or room panels within buildings. Events integration means that interactive maps may include information about what’s happening at a location now and in the future, instead of only containing a record of the location’s past in photos and videos.

"Visitors all benefit when events information is available within the interactive map and virtual tour," says CampusTours President Chris Carson. "Organizations use their virtual tours and interactive maps to tell their stories to various audiences, and communicating the upcoming events for locations helps visitors understand and appreciate the dynamic nature of their communities."

"We’re changing the way people think about calendars," states Susan Yee, Active Data CEO. "Our event solution, working in concert with CampusTours AnyMap, offers an engaging user experience that helps people determine, not only where to go, but what they can do when they get there."
