Resumo(s)
The word ‘Campus’ is often defined as grounds and surroundings involving buildings of a university. Nevertheless, the term Smart Campus (SmC) has been introduced a few years ago describing a new paradigm of campus intelligence not only related to a set of facilities, infrastructures, services and people, but also regarding concepts in computing and technology such as social networking, internet of things (IoT), mobile applications and geospatial information which means that its behaviour and administrative procedure can become complex.
Nowadays, universities are seeking for ways to evolve intelligently offering targeted services to improve the students’ life; converting standalone service systems into fully integrated articulated systems, bringing significant benefits and decreasing risk and costs.
The main idea of this research focuses on the analysis and comprehension of the current most relevant community requirements, specifically at the University of Jaume I in Castellón de la Plana in Spain. Also, how geographic information services, pedestrian navigation systems and mobile technologies can improve the interactions between the students and the campus. Additionally, this study can serve as the basis for future platform-tools or applications in such a scalable and modular way, that it could perfectly be integrated to other university campus or even future smart cities.
