Abstract

By nature of their activity public administrations possess huge volumes of information that could be valuable to the market. Today, transparency, responsibility and reuse are issues of importance. Public data can be source of wealth that generates new services for citizens, who should always bear in mind that these data have been generated from tax revenues, and therefore constitute a public good. This paper broaches the analysis of information reuse in the tourist sector. Given that tourist activity is one of the great job providers in the world, and especially so in Spain, tourist administration will, by nature, generate a huge amount of information for potential commercial use.
