Abstract

The platform uses API of online map data service to process lost and found information, and adds a push and reward module to increase people's enthusiasm for returning the picked items. After testing, the platform is capable of the functions of users’ registration and logging in, releasing the loss of material information ,as well as pushing lost and found messages automatically and so on. According to the statistics, the application of digital map data in lost and found platform has improved the success rate of lost and found.
