Tourist in Mallorca & Ibiza

In order to generate tourist indicators by implementing traditional methods, we need to be capable of gather statistical data from sources base on surveys, travels or businesses records. Usually, carry out it requires infrastructure and organization, and it has a high associated outlay. At IFISC we are working on how to generate and analyze tourist indicators by performing a big data analysis on Twitter, the idea is complement and improve traditional methods, as well as reduce operative costs. The plots here show the most popular places in the islands of Mallorca and Ibiza, detected by using our methods, explore!

High accuracy predicting airports passengers revenues by using RNN

It is well known the number of passengers per month on the airports, is highly linked to the seasons of the year. Usually in summer, the people use to travel more because their vacations, likewise during the xmas days and winter holidays. This periodicity on the curve makes the Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) algorithm works very well when is asked to forecast the passengers revenue for future months. From this perspective, by using data from SABRE , we were capable of calculate the number of passengers travelling through all the European airports, and with this information was posible to estimate the demand evolution on every airport in the EU. As an example, the plots below shows the time evolution of the total passengers traffic on Europa (top) and in the London Heathrow (bottom). Note when we study a single airport the curve becomes a little more noisy, however the RNN shows a RMSE > 0.8 (:O!).
