With digital tools 'Hello Maritime Mile' brought to life' the attractions by giving them personalities and encouraging visitors to engage in a SMS Text conversation with the objects.

In Belfast's Titanic Quarter is a waterside path with a rich history known as the 'Maritime Mile'. Along this walk are public art installations and historical and maritime arifacts. Using a seemingly simple digital technolgy we 'brought to life' the attractions by giving them personailities and encouraging visitors to enagge in an SMS Text conversation with the objects. The chatbot encoraged self propelled walking tours and really drove up both visitor numbers and data driven insights.
The Belfast authority held a number of design led workshops with partners to draw out the crux of the issue. They developed a number of potential solutions evenually deciding on the SMS text enagement, applying analytics on the responses and sentiment analysis.
