Welcome to the Valencia on Snap4City.

The Port of Valencia, strategically positioned as a gateway to the Mediterranean, is one of the busiest container ports in Europe. Its geographical location at the crossroads of major European trade routes not only facilitates significant commercial traffic but also positions it as a pivotal point for tourist flows, particularly from cruise ships. The port is continuously developing its infrastructure to enhance operational efficiency and visitor experiences, incorporating cutting-edge technologies to manage both commercial and tourist activities sustainably.

Valencia, a vibrant city on Spain's Mediterranean coast, is known for its rich history, diverse architecture, and lively cultural scene. The city's historic centre features notable landmarks such as La Lonja, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the Valencia Cathedral. Valencia is also famous for its City of Arts and Sciences, a cultural and architectural complex that has become a symbol of the city.

One of the main challenges in Valencia is managing the high tourist numbers that it receives nowadays, which result in significant congestion in its historic centre, known as La Ciutat Vella (Old City). It is crucial to ensure that this high demand for tourism does not negatively impact the preservation of its historical assets, by implementing sustainable tourism practices and improving the management of tourism flows to protect and enhance Valencia’s cultural heritage while providing an excellent experience for visitors.

The following dashboards are available.

 

 

The main dashboard TOURISMO Valencia is divided in three main areas:

  • A selector on the left that allows to activate/deactivate the visualization of data on the map. The popup on the sensor is responsible for controlling the visualization on the time-trend under the map;
  • The map representing the geographic area
  • The widget on the bottom part, below the map, with a single content showing the last value of a selected data, and a time trend widget representing the temporal data in a particular time period.

Also a specific widget showing the UV Index and Ozone column forecast data is on the right of the dashboard.

“Documentation” button links to this webpage.

The selector allows to shown/hide the following data represented as pins on the Map or activating specific advanced functionalities:

  • Open Weathers: activate/deactivate the pins on the map representing the geographical position of the open weather sensors measuring weather data. By clicking the pin on the map a pop up is shown representing all the data measured by the sensor (i.e. air temperature, air pressure, air humidity, etc.).
    • For each of the variable shown in the pop up in the column “Description”, it is possible to click on specific buttons (Last value, last 4 hours, last 24 hours, last 7 days, last 30 days, etc.) to see respectively the last value and the historical data represented in the widgets below the map.
  • Sea Conditions: activate/deactivate the pins on the map representing the geographical position of the open weather data representing sea conditions. By clicking the pin on the map a pop up is shown representing all the data measured (i.e. wave direction, wave height, wind wave direction and height, etc.).
    • For each of the variable shown in the pop up in the column “Description”, it is possible to click on specific buttons (Last value, last 4 hours, last 24 hours, last 7 days, last 30 days, etc.) to see respectively the last value and the historical data represented in the widgets below the map.
  • Air pollution: activate/deactivate the pins on the map representing the geographical position of the open weather sensors measuring air pollution. By clicking the pin on the map a pop up is shown representing all the data measured by the sensor (i.e. CO, PM10, PM2.5, NO, NO2, etc.).
    • For each of the variable shown on the pop up in the column “Description”, it is possible to click on specific buttons (Last value, last 4 hours, last 24 hours, last 7 days, last 30 days, etc.) to see respectively the last value and the historical data represented in the widgets below the map.
  • UV Index forecasts: showing data regarding UV index of the day and the forecast for the next days;
  • Indoor People Counting: showing data related to the number of people in the Musem and in La Lonja;
  • Indoor Env. CO2 Noise: showing data coming from internal sensors in the Museum and in La Lonja measuring different parameters: Noise level, CO2, Air Degree Humidity, Air Relative Humidity, Air Temperature, etc.;
  • Indoor Env.: showing data coming from internal sensors in the Museum and in La Lonja measuring different parameters: Air Relative Humidity and Air Temperature;
  • Indoor CO2: showing data coming from internal sensors in the Museum and in La Lonja measuring different parameters: CO2, Air Degree Humidity, Air Relative Humidity, Air Temperature, etc.
  • Cruise Tourists Counting (Cam): displays data collected from the thermal camera located at the port, used for counting cruise tourists.

Two buttons are also available in the main dashboard, each of them opening a specific dashboard with trends and metrics from the internal sensors in the Museum of the City and in La Lonja.

The dashboard TOURISMO Valencia Port - People Counting, which contains data from installed devices at the port, is divided in three main areas:

  • A selector on the left that allows to activate/deactivate the visualization of data on the map. The popup on the sensor is responsible for controlling the visualization on the time-trend under the map. The number of people are collected by Pax counting sensors and Thermal camera located at the port.
  • The map representing the geographic area
  • The widget on the bottom, below the map, showing a time trend widget of the selected parameter representing the temporal data in a particular time period. The default value is the wave height.

On the right, the weekly trends of people data collected by Pax counting sensors and thermal camera are displayed and compared.
