Selected Simple Indicators in the Field of Advanced Technologies as a Support of SMART Cities and Their Impact on Tourism
Abstract
The paper discusses the issue of SMART cities in the context of tourism with a focus on utilization of technologies for travel purposes. Using the Pearson correlation coefficient, dependencies are calculated and analyzed between relative outbound tourism and selected simple indicators which are percentage of the internet users, availability of latest technologies, percentage of people speaking English at the communication level and mobile telephone subscriptions. All four correlated coefficients reached positive values. According to the theoretical bases we can state that there is dependence in all four cases. But mobile telephone subscriptions have a weak dependence. Percentage of the internet users reached the highest dependence. It is positive also for SMART cities. Official data from technical sources were used when working on the paper.
