Content SummaryMobility services is a key area for mobile systems, as de facto the user is not travelling and not near any stationary info-point. Still, current info-mobility applications on mobile systems (such as PDAs and mobile phones) are very limited due both to insufficient technological capabilities and lack of appropriate user friendly interfaces. The technological barriers have been now overcome through GPRS and UMTS technologies, but still the available space in mobile equipment screens is not enough for efficient presentation of complex route maps and much info. IMAGE project (IST-2000-30047), co-funded by the EU and encompassing 16 partners from 5 European countries, aims at developing an intelligent and georeferenced info-mobility services, that can provide to the user the info he/she wants at the time he/she needs and according to his/her preferences. Thus, tourist and transport services (route guidance and navigation to museums, hotels restaurants, etc.) are offered through PDAs and mobile phones (using GPRS and GPS for user location). To be able to offer in real time and in a user friendly way these services, the service provider needs to understand in detail the user needs and monitor the service provision. Thus, a set of Intelligent Agents is developed, such as an Educator Agent, that monitors user actions and selfbuilds his/her profile, an Event Handling Agent that supports the user if the service is disrupted at any point (i.e. cancellation of service of connection bus, etc.). The relevant Agents family is analysed within the paper. In addition, a number of georeferenced, mobile and wireless infomobility services are realized (namely geocoding, mapping and routing web services), that support modular and personalized use cases. A typical use case of IMAGE system is presented, as well as, the web services supporting such use cases. The paper explains the concept of the system, briefly presents its architecture and focuses on its user-friendly interface and the mobile units it supports.en
