One of the field that in fast growing is the tourism industry. Developing mobile tourism application requires a thorough study on requirements. This research discussed the conception, inception and implementation of the framework for mobile augmented reality tourism application. Thus, the objective of this study to analyse and construct requirement needed for a mobile augmented reality tourism application framework and to apply the framework in product development. The framework consists of requirements pyramid model and components of the user, technical and system design requirements which are dependent on each other. The framework adopts user-centered design approach by refining user input in user requirements all the way to product development. The questionnaire is distributed to 105 respondent to find out whether the software requirement component proposed are according to their needs and expectation. Descriptive and factor analysis were used to analyse the data. Based on the result, the component proposed have a high-reliability index, indicating that the components are acceptable. The findings provide a foundation into constructing mobile augmented reality tourism application framework and facilitate the software development. This research hopes to contribute to the field of software requirements and able to give guidance to other researchers who are interested in the field of mobile augmented reality tourism application.
