Abstract

The Center for Tourism Analysis and its Prospectives (CAPT) has been created at the initiative of the Vice-Chancellor of Research and Territorial Development and the Research Transfer Office (OTRI) of the University of Córdoba, with the initial co-financing of the General Secretariat of Universities, Research and Technology of the Ministry of Economics, Knowledge, Business and University of the Junta de Andalucía, as well as with the EFRD of the European Union. The main objective is to collect, process, analyze, interpret, systematize and disseminate information about the provincial tourism sector; supporting research and its scientific management, as well as facilitating the


transfer of knowledge from research groups and experts of the University of Córdoba in the study of tourism policy and planning. To this end, scientific and technical meetings will be convened with public institutions with competence in tourism, as well as with private entities promoting debate and exchange of experiences, as well as multidisciplinary research to diagnose the current situation and decision-making for tourism agents in Córdoba. Finally, the tourist information system of Córdoba (SITCOR) analysis and prospecting tool that will offer periodic results of the tourist activity will be highlighted as the main project.
