Santander is committed to digitalisation to boost local commerce
The city of Santander has taken a firm step towards the modernisation of local commerce with the implementation of an innovative system for measuring the flow of people in commercial areas. This project aims to improve the competitiveness of the commercial sector and optimise tourism management through the use of advanced technological tools.
Smarter and more connected commerce
Thanks to the Programme for Strengthening Commercial Activity in Tourist Areas, Santander has deployed a network of sensors (Seeketing Nodes) in strategic areas to analyse the behaviour of residents and visitors. The Seeketing Nodes make it possible to obtain real-time data on affluence and mobility, facilitating informed decision-making for commercial and tourism planning.
Main project developments
- Installation of Noos Seeketing at key points in the city to analyse the flow of people.
- Integration with Santander's Smart City platform, ensuring access to real-time data and its detailed analysis.
- Optimisation of commercial strategies by studying consumer behaviour patterns.
- Proximity marketing campaigns, allowing personalised messages to be sent to registered visitors.
- Compliance with data protection regulations, guaranteeing the anonymisation of the information collected.
Benefits for retailers and citizens
This commercial digitalisation system not only benefits retailers by providing them with valuable information about their target audience, but also improves the shopping experience for visitors, offering recommendations and promotions tailored to their interests.
With this initiative, Santander is consolidating its position as a benchmark in the digital transformation of urban commerce, promoting a more efficient, sustainable model oriented towards the needs of the modern consumer.
