Problem n° 2
Hotel content discrepenciesStandardizing Hotels data is equally important and complex as Id's mapping.
Each provider have it's own way of delivering hotels specifications and data as each one uses a particular way of querying their database.
One's you know who is who, you need to know who s doing what and how.
You want to have the freedom of using a database that includes all available content for each hotel, from all suppliers.
Pre selecting the hotels of your choice for your promotions.
Have a unified database according to your specs. | |
keep your habits and suppliers preferences. | |
Empower suppliers API searches efficiency. | |
Get rid of data discrepancies from some suppliers. | |
Aggregate the most relevant content from suppliers. |
Solution n° 2
Hotel most relevant content matcherAn example: some suppliers will alter hotel cities name to include a larger area, supposedly to ease searches across their databases.
Hotels in all surrounding areas (30 miles radius !) will have the city set to Miami.
When a customer queries their databases, the returned result will consider all those cited cities as "Miami".
If you are looking for hotels in Miami beach only, you have to crawl across the entire result.
In a general manner, suppliers alter their listing according to their database capacities. Doing so, they create anomalies.
All in all this makes hotels searches imprecise across multiple suppliers, as all will have different criterias for cities.
When you are used to working with some suppliers, you like how they bring you good offers and quality data.
On the other hand, you might be missing important data and offers if you focus too much on some of them.
AIT hotel content matcher works hand in hand with you. Simply rank your suppliers and AIT hotel data matcher will prioritize your choices.
For instance: You prefer provider 1 (policies etc) over provider 2. AIT hotel data matcher will keep it this way and only grab provider 2 data if it s missing in provider 1.etc.
Hotel | check it | Correct it | clean it | Norm it |
---|---|---|---|---|
Name | Keep as is | Prov. priority | irrelevant info | google most |
Address | Keep as is | on error | reverse geo-coding | Postal per country |
City | freeze | Prov. priority | no | none |
Zip code | yes | on error | yes | Postal per country |

Phone / fax | Keep as is | Prov. priority | international | NANP, DIN or E.123 |
Keep as is | on error | yes | none | |
GPS Lat & Long | Keep as is | average on all | no | ISO 9.6 |
Location: Location is set as the closest relevant POI. matched for all suppliers, avoiding multiple redundancies, greatly facilitates later location searches.
Cities: A second city field is added with the administrative city name (independant of the provider's one) and set in 2 languages (English and original language)
IATA: AIT hotel data matcher validates destination codes (IATA) used by suppliers and set it as the preferred one (as per your suppliers ranking) but a second IATA code field is created, corresponding to the closest IATA location. It can be a train station, an airport, a cruise terminal. IATA fields names are added.
Phone numbers: By default AIT hotel data matcher will set them in the international one, following each country owns nomenclature.
