UN Tourism Artificial Intelligence Global Startup Competition

Project:
QONTEO - Analytical video using artificial intelligence for the tourism industry

 SUMMARY,
In tourism, without data there is no strategy. Today, tourist destinations of all kinds - from the most consolidated to emerging ones - face great limitation: the lack of reliable information, updated on the real flow of people and vehicles. This lack prevents planning, measuring the impact of investments and adjusting the supply to demand. Our platform solves this problem by turning any video camera into an intelligent data source using artificial intelligence. Our solution delivers real -time information about the flow and transit of tourists, offering to improve the offer of tourist destination, hotels, restaurants and travel agencies, for a better experience for the visitor. It is a platform is accessible, scalable and immediate impact. It is data intelligence for power the tourist offer.


THE PROBLEM

Without data, there is no possible strategy. Any strategy aimed at promoting, managing or investing in tourism development - whether from the public or private sector - needs reliable information. Information on the flow and transit of people and vehicles in destinations are basic data. However, the available information is usually fragmented, generic and, in most cases very outdated.  This lack of data hinders efficient planning, evidence -based decision making and real measurement of investment impact. The few available market studies use a limited method, which do not capture tourist dynamics with sufficient precision, which generates distortions in the allocation of budgets and in the definition of the scope of the projects; In addition to being costs, access to specialized companies.  To this is added the lack of mechanisms to share this information with the key actors of the tourist ecosystem - such as hotels, restaurants, operators and entertainment centers - restricting their ability to adjust the supply to real demand. This lack of tourist intelligence affects both the most popular destinations and emerging towns with high potential.

OUR SOLUTION
Through video analytic technology with artificial intelligence, it converts any video camera into a strategic tool for smart tourism. Our technology analyzes in real time the flow of people and vehicles, delivering precise information about gender, age range, traffic habits, average permanence times and types of transport used (bicycles, motorcycles, cars, buses, etc.). From the existing infrastructure or with strategically installed equipment, each tourist destination can have a dynamic and continuous radiography of its activity. This translates into more agile decisions, more efficient planning and services management that really responds to demand. But the real potential is activated by sharing this information with the entire tourist ecosystem: hotels can anticipate more precision occupation, restaurants adjust their operation to maximize attention, travel agencies optimize Its offer according to the real tourist flows. All with an accessible, scalable and immediate impact solution, which improves the visitor's experience and enhances local economic growth.
