2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
One of the most important aspects of visiting the Balearic Island in summer, when we find the
most abundance of tourists, is visiting beaches all around the islands. However, there is a lack
of real-time information about critical information on them. In that regard, it is highly
recommended for any tourist to know about the temperature, probability of rain, UV index,
density of people, or whether there are jellyfish or sea plants. This data can be crucial to the
decision-making process of any visitor when planning what beach to visit on any given day.
Also, this would help reduce the collapse on roads, parking spots, and beaches themselves,
since people would naturally go to the beaches with better conditions and avoid the ones with
worse data. The clients will be able to access this information through any application and
access to the data in real-time collected by sensors and cameras driven by AI software that
would provide reliable information about the beaches.

Furthermore, the incorporation of a new study titled “Evaluating the Impacts of Tourism in a
Tibetan Village in the Context of Climate Change and Cultural Heritage Protection” broadens
the understanding of tourism sustainability (Noome & Fitchett, 2019). The study delves into the
intersection of climate change, cultural heritage protection, and tourism impacts, providing a
nuanced perspective that is relevant as the discourse expands into the realm of tourism
sustainability in the subsequent sections.
The endeavor to provide real-time beach condition information aligns with the broader
objectives of promoting sustainability and enhancing the tourist experience. As we transition
into a detailed discussion on tourism sustainability in the following sections, the frameworks
and insights garnered from the reviewed literature lay a solid foundation for delving deeper
into sustainable practices, community engagement, and the technological advancements that
can drive sustainability in tourism management in the Balearic Islands.
As the main characteristic to be taken into account to guarantee a comfortable experience for
tourists is the influence of the climate when making decisions related to tourist destinations,
depending on the search criteria of a place as a final destination, there are several
characteristics to be taken into account, as different types of tourist destinations can be
influenced by different elements, for example, For destinations focused on winter sports, one
of the main characteristics to be taken into account could be the amount of snow cover,
whereas for warmer destinations such as beaches or places near the sea, the main
characteristic could be rising sea levels (Becken, 2010), which means that the information to
be provided to tourists will depend specifically on the type of destination they have chosen.
As mentioned above, in beach-oriented tourism, the criteria to be taken into account should
focus on how good the day will be, whether it will rain or not, how much sunshine there will be,
and so on. According to Toubes et al. in their research "Influence of the weather on the
behavior of tourists in a beach destination", weather forecasts are an important factor in
decision-making. According to the studies conducted, almost 70% of respondents were
influenced in their decisions by the destination's weather information. This shows how much
influence weather conditions have on tourists and how this can affect the tourism industry.
Factors such as temperature, wind, precipitation, and sunshine are important when making
decisions (Toubes et al., 2020), which gives us an indication of the variables that should be
taken into account when creating a platform aimed at providing timely information to tourists.
On the other hand, although the importance of climate and weather in decision-making has
already been highlighted, they are not the only factors to be taken into account to ensure a
good experience for tourists, as there is a close relationship between climate, weather, and
tourism, and it shows the need to understand the nature of these relationships to make
tourism planning more effective. In this way, Gómez ensures that tourism planning is more
effective. He also argues that tourism planning should include more than general descriptions
of climate, which are often unrelated to tourism needs. They should focus on the climatology
of a specific area and be linked to the multiple facets of tourism: the attractiveness and
functionality of the destination, the planning of activities, the safety of tourists, etc. (Gómez
Martín, 2005).
5. MOTIVATION AND JUSTIFICATION
In light of the importance of meteorology in coastal tourism and the growing commitment to
nature, our project aims to provide an application that will allow us to improve the care of
beaches in Mallorca. As tourism is the main industry in Mallorca, it is essential that the
beaches are well-maintained and that tourists have a positive experience. Our project will
monitor the quality of the water, beach erosion, weather conditions, and the number of beach
visitors in real time. As a result, we will be able to make recommendations based on the needs
of both pedestrians and sailors.
The Tourism Climate Index (TCI) is widely used in Northern Hemisphere countries to
determine the climate suitability of tourist destinations. Sustainable tourism development is
considered an important challenge to improve resource management in coastal and marine
areas. Sustainability assessments appear to be influenced by how each project views and
weighs the economic, social, environmental, and governance pillars of sustainability. (JOUR,
2019)
The continuous growth of human activities around coastal cities has seriously affected their
environmental quality and harmed biodiversity (Cherif et al., 2020; Kathijotes, 2013; Mejjad et
al., 2020). The sustainable growth of tourism activities will have a positive impact on social
and economic sectors, but the impact on all levels of the coastal environment may be negative
(pollution, waste, infrastructure, and habitats are already under pressure). A key component of
the sustainable development of coastal tourism destinations is the establishment of monitoring
and evaluation programs to assess the economic, social, and environmental impacts of
tourism (Papatheochari, 2019)
This document proposes a framework for measuring and monitoring sustainability at the local
level by implementing a three-part indicator system. This article highlights the role of local
stakeholders in the development of a monitoring system and discusses the challenges that
arise during the process. In essence, this paper presents an alternative approach to adapting
the overall framework to enable sustainability assessment at the local level. (Coccossis & H. y
Koutsopoulou, A, 2019)
To create an application that monitors the state of the beach, including weather, water quality,
sand, and beach slopes, we need to consider several factors that affect beach health. Water
quality, waves, high tides, and weather turbulence are some of the most important factors to
consider. By creating a warning system, we can make suggestions for safe and quality
beaches and balance beach maintenance and customer demand.
To this end, (Wiggin & Holland, 2019) proposed a validated and cost-effective method for
detecting microplastics in aquatic environments, which could be used to monitor the presence
of microplastics in bodies of water and beaches. This information could be used to develop an
application that measures the concentration of microplastics in bodies of water and beaches.
The proposed protocol for detecting microplastics on beaches can help identify areas that may
pose a greater risk to tourists and drive measures to reduce exposure, such as beach cleanup
and waste management.
(Silva et al., 2020) emphasized the importance of understanding the submerged beach profile
to predict beach break, configuration, and surge. This information could be used to develop an
application that provides real-time data on the submerged beach profile to understand the
impact of waves on shorelines and develop effective coastal management strategies. Our
project uses empirical predictors and an analysis of the runup simulated with the SWASH
model over different swept and linear bathymetries to predict beach breakthrough, formation,
and swelling. This includes the monitoring of water quality properties and the beach
environment, which can improve beach or cove suggestions to users.
(Aziz, 2019) showed that low-cost IoT can provide real-time and delayed sea level data such
as temperature, salinity, and pH, which can be used to monitor the quality of seawater and
beaches. In addition, some sensors measure sand quality and detect the presence of
unwanted debris. This can support coastal monitoring and help predict natural catastrophes
using the data obtained.
(Barnard et al., 2020) used remote sensing techniques to estimate beach slopes and their
potential for use in other coastal environments. The study highlights the advantages of the
new beach exclusively from spatial observations, which could be used to develop an
application that provides real-time data on the slope of the beach face. This could inspire the
development of new applications to monitor water quality properties and other aspects of the
beach environment using satellite imagery.
Real-time tracking of trash and human activities on the beach is highlighted, which can help
inform customers of the current state of the beach. The study by (Nazerdeylami et al., 2021)
proposes the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and machine learning algorithms to
detect and classify litter and human activity in coastal areas. With the UAVs providing
customers with information about the state of the beach, the framework can help raise
awareness about the importance of keeping beaches clean and reducing litter. This can
positively impact the environment and help preserve coastal ecosystems. The proposed
autonomous system is promising to increase the speed and scale of litter monitoring in the
coastal zone.
In summary, by considering various factors that affect beach health, we can develop an
application that monitors the state of the beach in real-time. This includes monitoring water
quality properties, beach slopes, and the presence of microplastics, as well as tracking trash
and human activities on the beach. By providing customers with information about the state of
the beach, we can help raise awareness about the importance of keeping beaches clean and
reducing litter, which can positively impact the environment and help preserve coastal
ecosystems. However, not only terrestrial and marine monitoring will be carried out. Also when
taking into account the temperature among other parameters, systems or protocols
established for aerial monitoring will be taken into account.
Regarding litter detection to provide a reliable tool to monitor how abundant the litter is in the
beach and in what proportion it can affect the wellness of the tourists visiting said beach, there
is enough evidence that using Unmanned Aerial System (UAS), such as drones, with low-cost
RGB cameras, the quality of the litter detection system reaches an f-score as high as 72%
when using an Object-Oriented Machine Learning (OOML) technique known as Random
Forest (RF). Therefore, it is well-proven that the system can be used effectively for generating
an ultrahigh-resolution orthomosaic and for monitoring sandy beaches polluted by litter.
A system of drones monitoring the shore can also be useful to detect and monitor how climate
change can be associated with sea-level rise and its impacts on the species living in the sea
or near the sea such as sea turtles. To achieve this goal it is proven to be efficient to construct
a topography model to gather proper data that can be useful in future times. Also, it can be
compared with satellite-derived shoreline detection, as these images are public and can
reinforce the data collected by the topography model.
An important topic to analyze when implementing this type of service based on an application
is the monetization system. In that regard, it is important to design a monetization system that
prioritizes a massive use of the application. Several articles have studied this subject and
many of them suggest that a “freemium” system is the ideal. Therefore, a free version of the
application can be used by the users offering high-quality information about beaches, but with
a limit that can only be removed by the acquisition of the paying version of the application.
To conclude the state of the art, as can be seen, there is quite a lot of research carried on
oriented toward monitoring the seaside and studying tourism behavior, but all this information
has never been collected and put together in order to create a source of unified information
oriented to tourism about the situation of beaches. Also, we can use all this information for
future research, since the information gathered might be useful for a variety of research fields.

environmental impact by mitigating overcrowding on the islands and implementing measures
to improve water quality.
In summary, this project is poised to make significant contributions to both the economic and
environmental health of the island, aligning seamlessly with the objectives of the current call
for proposals. It is anticipated that these improvements will lead to a sustainable increase in
tourism and a corresponding boost in local economic prosperity.
8. PROJECT METHODOLOGY
The project to monitor the beaches of Mallorca will involve both primary research and
secondary analysis. Primary research involves collecting new data through methods such as
surveys, interviews, and observations. The secondary analysis involves analyzing existing
data that has been collected by other research groups. The project will use both types of
research to offer a platform where tourists will be able to check the status of different beaches
around the seaside, both the data that has been already taken by other research groups and
the new data that we will gather by installing sensors on beaches will be useful to the overall
system.
The project will collect both quantitative and qualitative data. Quantitative data will be provided
by the sensors themselves, and qualitative data will be extracted from it to offer more
human-represented information. Qualitative data will also be important in the development of
the application, as the opinion of the users will be a key component in the evaluation process.
Using both primary research and secondary analysis, the project will gather both new and
existing data to provide tourists with a comprehensive means of checking the status of
beaches around the coastline. By collecting both quantitative and qualitative data, the project
will be able to provide valuable information to tourists and make recommendations that will
enhance their experience. Furthermore, the project aligns with the broader themes of
sustainable tourism, technological intervention, and real-time data dissemination.
A detailed study has been made to evaluate the impact of the project’s execution on the
beach’s environment. The result is that the area used to install the sensors is mostly irrelevant
since it will occupy around 0,25 square meters at a height of 3 meters. We have applied a
relevant method for an accurate evaluation. We used the environmental impact (EI) as:
(𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎 𝑜𝑓 𝑖𝑛𝑓𝑙𝑢𝑒𝑛𝑐𝑒 * 𝑇𝑒𝑐ℎ𝑛𝑜𝑙𝑜𝑔𝑦)
𝐸𝐼 = 𝑀𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑔𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑚𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑢𝑟𝑒𝑠
, taking the Area of influence as the square meters occupied by
our technology and the Technology as the number of stuff installed on the beach, the budget
for mitigation measures included in the contingency budget. The small area of influence and
the utility of the data gathered by the sensors will be far greater than the impact on the
environment. Therefore, in conclusion, all the data collected by our system will help monitor
and control the environment to improve it and keep it at any time needed.
