Spatial-temporal analysis of comfort perception among tourists in the municipality of Porto (Portugal): GPS-based insights for urban planning . In Book of Abstracts – DSOTT’2025: Diversity and Sustainability: Opportunities and Threats on Tourism. Coimbra:ITSA. p. 20http://hdl.handle.net/10198/35615A literature review on outdoor thermal comfort reveals a significant influence of weather conditions on the tourist' behaviour (e.g., Hardy et al., 2017; Yao et al., 2021; Geletič et al., 2023). In recent years, the outdoor thermal comfort issue has posed a significant challenge to urban planning. The use of GPS data is becoming increasingly widespread in the analysis of behaviour and the relationship between meteorological conditions and decision-making processes. The territorial management depends of a proactive approach to achieve the sustainable development of the sector.engThermal comfortTourismSpatial-temporal analysis of comfort perception among tourists in the municipality of Porto (Portugal): GPS-based insights for urban planningconference object
