The digital transformation of the tourism ecosystem is bolstered by the concurrent development of infrastructures and applications such as fifth generation (5G) networks, smart cities, and the implementation of the Tourism Satellite Account. The latter serves as a tool for economic and statistical analysis of tourism activity at the national level. It provides performance and productivity metrics, quantitatively measures tourism’s contribution to GDP and the overall economic activity and documents the structure of businesses and visitor flows. It also gathers employment data for the sector and identifies trends and challenges related to the sustainability and development of tourism infrastructure. Overall, the combination of advanced technology and rigorous statistical guidance enhances the competitiveness and strategic planning of the tourism sector.
