The application utilizes user location and various databases in order to provide information and recommendations about various points of interest in their surroundings. OverviewField Trip acts as a "virtual tour guide" - using the user's location in order to recommend nearby landmarks and various points of interest, providing information about them ranging from historical tidbits to restaurant reviews.[1] Upon approaching such points of interest, in-app "cards" would pop up with information regarding the location. The application also allows its users to customize the app's features, whether it to adjust the frequency of notifications or to prefer certain types of locations.[2] The application uses GPS and cellular signals to determine the user's location, although in some cases triangulation from radio towers and Wi-Fi emitters are used to conserve battery life.[3] In order to obtain information regarding the landmarks and points of interest, the project's developers relied on external partners like Atlas Obscura, Thrillist,[4] Scoutmob[5] and Dezeen[6] in addition to internal Google structures such as Zagat.[6] In an August 2013 interview with CNN, Hanke mentioned that the application gathered information from 130 databases.[7] DevelopmentFollowing the acquisition of his company Keyhole, John Hanke created Niantic Labs within Google as something resembling a startup within the latter's structure. Hanke stated that he wanted users to "explore the beautiful stuff around them". The application was developed with hardware like Google Glass in mind.[8] Field Trip would become the first application released by Niantic.[5] In August 2014, Field Trip's functionality was rolled into Google Now, although the standalone application remained.[9] Points of interest collected within the app were used in later applications by the developer, such as Ingress.[10] ReleaseThe first version of the app was released exclusively for the United States on September 27, 2012 for Android phones,[6] with a release for the United Kingdom in December that year.[11] An iOS version was released in March 2013.[12] By May 2013, the release had been expanded to include 80 countries with support for 30 languages.[13] In August 2013, a version was released for Google Glass, being a simpler version of the smartphone app.[14] Android Wear versions were released in 2015.[15] References1. ^{{cite news |title=Google Field Trip app acts as a virtual tour guide |url=https://www.slashgear.com/google-field-trip-app-acts-as-a-virtual-tour-guide-27249527/ |accessdate=August 12, 2018 |work=SlashGear |date=September 27, 2012}} {{Niantic Labs}}2. ^{{cite news |last1=Rosenblatt |first1=Seth |title=Google Glass finds fellow traveler in Field Trip |url=https://www.cnet.com/news/google-glass-finds-fellow-traveler-in-field-trip/ |accessdate=August 12, 2018 |work=CNet |date=August 21, 2013}} 3. ^{{cite news |last1=Bailey |first1=Brandon |title=Mercury News interview: John Hanke, vice president and head of Google’s Niantic Labs. |url=https://www.mercurynews.com/2012/11/02/mercury-news-interview-john-hanke-vice-president-and-head-of-googles-niantic-labs/ |accessdate=August 12, 2018 |work=The Mercury News |date=November 2, 2012}} 4. ^{{cite news |last1=Ingraham |first1=Nathan |title=Google releases 'Field Trip' app, a location-aware guidebook to your surroundings |url=https://www.theverge.com/2012/9/27/3418082/google-field-trip-location-based-guidebook |accessdate=August 12, 2018 |work=The Verge |date=September 27, 2012}} 5. ^1 {{cite news |last1=Dickey |first1=Megan Rose |title=There's A 'Sphere Of Weirdness' Hidden Deep Within Google |url=https://www.businessinsider.com/google-niantic-labs-2013-1/?IR=T |accessdate=August 12, 2018 |work=Business Insider |date=January 23, 2013}} 6. ^1 {{cite news |last1=Heater |first1=Brian |title=Google's Niantic Labs launches Field Trip app for Android, helps the working world play hooky |url=https://www.engadget.com/2012/09/27/googles-niantic-labs-launches-field-trip-app-for-android-helps/ |accessdate=August 12, 2018 |work=Engadget |date=September 27, 2012}} 7. ^{{cite news |last1=Frum |first1=Larry |title=At Google, apps to help discover (and conquer) the world around you |url=https://edition.cnn.com/2013/08/26/tech/gaming-gadgets/google-niantic-ingress/index.html |accessdate=August 12, 2018 |work=CNN |date=August 27, 2013}} 8. ^{{cite news |last1=Swanner |first1=Nate |title=John Hanke of Niantic Labs talks about Field Trip |url=https://www.androidauthority.com/interview-with-john-hanke-about-field-trip-175968/ |accessdate=August 12, 2018 |work=Android Authority |date=March 21, 2013}} 9. ^{{cite news |last1=Nield |first1=David |title=Google plugs its Field Trip app into Google Now |url=https://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/google-plugs-field-trip-app-google-now/ |accessdate=August 12, 2018 |work=Digital Trends |date=August 17, 2014}} 10. ^{{cite news |last1=Ingraham |first1=Nathan |title=Google's 'Ingress' will soon let players build scavenger-hunt missions across the globe |url=https://www.theverge.com/2014/9/25/6840157/google-ingress-scavenger-hunt-missions-launch |accessdate=August 12, 2018 |work=The Verge |date=September 25, 2014}} 11. ^{{cite news |last1=Dobie |first1=Alex |title=Google's Field Trip app now available in the UK |url=https://www.androidcentral.com/google-s-field-trip-now-available-uk |accessdate=August 12, 2018 |work=Android Central |date=December 18, 2012}} 12. ^1 {{cite news |last1=Koetsier |first1=John |title=Google’s awesome ‘Field Trip’ app launches for Apple’s iPhone |url=https://venturebeat.com/2013/03/08/googles-awesome-field-trip-app-launches-for-apples-iphone/ |accessdate=August 12, 2018 |work=VentureBeat |date=March 8, 2013}} 13. ^{{cite news |last1=Racoma |first1=J.
