The initiative "There’s an Ourense for you. Discover it", is framed within the National Plan for Smart Territories. This plan prioritises actions aimed at transforming Spanish tourist destinations into Smart Tourist Destinations, so that the use of technology redefines the organisation and processes by which services are provided to the two communities of citizens: residents and tourists, thus boosting the use of ICT in the development of cities and tourist territories
Within the framework of the Smart Tourist Destinations call, on 12 February 2019 the Ourense Provincial Council and the business entity of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Digital Transformation (Red.es) signed an agreement in order to develop the actions framed within this initiative
The main objective of the initiative "There's a Ourense for you. Discover it" is to advance in the conversion of the province of Ourense into a Smart Tourist Destination, providing it with infrastructure, equipment and services to combat the digital divide and improve the tourist experience by studying and managing tourist flows in the main points of interest, in order to adjust the area’s tourist carrying capacity and enhance the province’s historical, natural and cultural heritage
Among the planned components in the initiative is the implementation of an integrated smart tourism platform that will provide tourists with information of interest on the main tourist resources of the province of Ourense, in order to offer them personalised services and immersive experiences.
