Mobile augmented reality applications have seen tremendous growth in recent years and tourism is one of the fields in which this set of technologies has been proved to be a natural fit. Augmented reality has the potential of enhancing the surroundings of the tourist in a meaningful way. In order to provide personalized and rich content for the augmented reality application, researchers have explored the use of Semantic Web and especially Linked Data principles and technologies. In this paper we review existing projects at the intersection of these technologies and current aspects, not necessarily specific, but highly relevant to the integration of Linked Open Data in mobile augmented reality applications for tourism. In this respect, we discuss approaches in the area of geodata integration, quality of the open data, provenance information and trust. We conclude with recommendations regarding future research in this area.
