noticia Barcelos with your fingers
Today the world is more globalized than ever, continents, countries, regions, municipalities, companies and individuals increasingly compete with each other. In this scenario, technology and information are the key differentiating elements in this global competition.
 
Aware of this reality, the Municipality of Barcelos supported and endorsed the creation of the application "Barcelos with your fingers." The application was created internally, and aims to answer the above two paradigms: technology and information.
 
This application seeks to answer three fundamental questions that have become our primary objectives, namely:
  1. Organize, systematize, adapt and simplify the information (design and alphanumeric type) to be use in GIS
  2. Turn all the information generated into a visually attractive information, tailored to different bases of spatial referencing and fully searchable by the civil society
  3. Make that information usable in real time, setting and serving as a facilitator for the spatial planning of the territory.
 
On this last point, you have at your disposal all the touristic offer, facilities and major municipal infrastructure in real time, such as:

Restaurants, museums, hotels, places of entertainment, architectural and archaeological heritage, green corridors, Santiago’s Way, thematic trails, Municipal infrastructures, community facilities and services, etc. In addition to research, consultation and online interaction (from the website of the Municipality of Barcelos), you can download all this information to your usual GPS, and use all the information in real time and scenario.
