What is Smart Poqueira?

It is a project consisting of the analysis and implementation of digital technology for a more sustainable management of aspects related to tourism activity in environmentally sensitive areas

This is a project that combines research, experimentation, and implementation through the launch of a ‘digital living lab’ in the municipalities of Pampaneira, Bubión, and Capileira. The three municipalities are included in one of the most visited areas of the Sierra Nevada National Park and the Alpujarra region (Granada). The project focuses on aspects related to tourism activity in the territory, including traffic control, capacity and flow control, visitor characterization, economic impact, waste management, and intelligent information and dissemination. The digital technologies used in the project include, among others, smart cameras, mobility counters, augmented reality, sensors in garbage containers, sensors in public establishments, and dashboards
