The LIBECCIO project focuses on developing a Big Data-driven decision-making system for tourist destinations. The goal is to enhance the way data is collected, analyzed, and used to support tourism management across various geographic levels. By utilizing modern technologies like web scraping, APIs, and cloud platforms, the project aims to create a robust system that helps improve decision-making in areas such as tourism flow, visitor behavior, and sentiment analysis.
My experience with the IVY Program, working within this project, has been incredibly rewarding. The program has introduced me to a world full of new and exciting experiences, allowing me to actively contribute to important discussions and tasks. From collaborating with various project partners to gaining practical experience with advanced data analysis techniques, it has been an eye-opening journey. I’ve gained a deeper understanding of how big data can be leveraged to create meaningful solutions for industries like tourism.
Overall, the LIBECCIO project and my role in the volunteer program have allowed me to contribute meaningfully to the advancement of sustainable tourism management while gaining invaluable professional and personal development opportunities. The combination of learning and contributing has made this experience deeply enriching, and I look forward to continuing to grow alongside this impactful initiative.
