#BBVAturismo: An analysis of tourism in Spain through spending
BBVA Innovation Center, Vizzuality and CartoDB have put a face to tourism in Spain through an app that illustrates the data collected by BBVA Data & Analytics. 5.4 million anonymized transactions have provided the information required to create this interactive map.
