Smart Cities Pilot - Portal Framework - Kortrijk
Kortrijk is looking for a platform that re-uses available information from different data sources and delivers this to tourist kiosks and Wi-Fi networks. We intend especially to address all kind of visitors of the city (tourists, students from outside the city, visitors of the international fair complex)
The city feels the need to promote itself to visitors. The merchants of the city center want to become more visible and to create a new channel to potential visitors, the cultural associations want to promote their activities, and the hotel and catering industry wants to become more famous
