The DIGIPAL initiative is a project of the Palencia City Council selected in the II Call for Smart Cities within the framework of the Digital Agenda for Spain. It is developed through a collaboration agreement with RED.ES, a public business entity of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Digital Transformation and is co-financed by the European Union through the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).

DIGIPAL's main objective is to promote progressive structural change in the city of Palencia aimed at achieving sustainable local development, based on innovative projects and the support of ICTs. The initiative aims to modernize and improve digital public services and public administration, rationalizing its operating costs and reducing its environmental footprint, and seeks to encourage collaboration between the different administrations and social agents that intervene in the city, activating and mobilizing resources, establishing work synergies between citizens, institutions and business fabric.

The DIGIPAL initiative aims to turn Palencia and its alfoz into a more intelligent territory, promoting the development of a coordinated set of actions, through the use of ICT.

Among the different components of this initiative is the present Palencia Official Tourism Mobile Application, which allows the dissemination of all the tourist resources and services of the city of Palencia, greater interaction with the visitor before, during and after the tourist experience and the obtaining of information and data that facilitate the planning of strategies for improvement, differentiation and optimization of resources.
