Zaragoza, Spain
- Created: 22 April 2016
The use case held in Zaragoza will focus on the development of a mobile application that will help senior citizens and people facing mobility problems detect existing deficiencies in routes and neighborhoods and will ensure improvements in terms of accessibility, equipment and safety.
