Smart Solutions for Safe and Sustainable Beaches

Spain"s coastal cities face numerous challenges during the peak tourism season, when the massive influx of visitors tests their ability to ensure a safe, comfortable and sustainable experience. Problems such as parking congestion, overcrowded beaches, safety risks at sea and environmental concerns call for innovative and effective measures to preserve both the local quality of life and that of tourists.

Spanish coastal cities deal with challenges such as lack of parking, beach overcrowding and safety risks, including drownings associated with lack of surveillance and maritime hazards. In addition, they face environmental problems such as spills affecting water quality and marine fauna. These difficulties demand comprehensive solutions to maintain sustainable and safe tourism.

At Dinycon Sistemas we understand the challenges that Spanish coastal cities face during the summer, and we work on various technological solutions to address each of them in an efficient and sustainable way.

Visitor flow management: Intelligent systems to control beach capacity.
Optimisation of car parks: Technological solutions to reduce congestion and improve the user experience.
Environmental protection: Advanced technology to detect spills at sea and protect the natural environment.
Maritime safety: Innovative tool to identify undertow currents, reducing drowning risks.
Innovation recognition: Sun&Blue Congress Artificial Intelligence Innovation Award.
Commitment to sustainability: Transforming challenges into opportunities to ensure a safer, more orderly and sustainable summer.

Innovative solution: ATPOINTS

AtPoints is an innovative platform designed to optimise urban mobility and provide real-time information about the city environment. It works through sensors integrated into existing infrastructure, eliminating the need for additional hardware and ensuring efficient implementation. Its design as a cloud-based SaaS platform allows users to easily access collected data, while rigorous GDPR compliance ensures privacy protection. This award-winning system was highlighted with the first prize in the San Sebastian Provincial Council"s application competition in 2016.

Among the most prominent use cases is the efficient management of pedestrian and vehicular traffic, enabling municipalities to implement data-driven strategies to reduce congestion and improve accessibility. In addition, AtPoints is a key tool for optimising urban services, such as public transport, infrastructure maintenance and the management of mass events. For example, it allows real-time monitoring of the occupation of public spaces, which facilitates decision-making in situations of high demand.

Obtain valuable information on tourist flows

Some of the benefits of people counting and people tracking systems is that they allow access to a large amount of information about tourists and visitors; it is possible to know the number of visitors the city has , which areas are the most visited or try to divert the flow to other less crowded areas. In addition, we can also know when there is less influx , in order to create events or campaigns that attract a greater number of tourists , as well as what are the usual routes within the city and its surroundings.
