This paper presents the results of the application of four different tools (tourist card, questionarie, GPS and NFC) with the objective to study the movement of tourists in a tourist historic city (Popayán, Colombia). Given the need for these types of cities to manage tourism in a sustainable way, and considering that the management of tourist flows is a key aspect to achieve this, the aim was to find out which of the tools applied provides more precise data on the movement of tourists in the destination. For this, information was collected on the movement of tourists with four different tools, applying each tool in four different years (2011, 2012, 2013 and 2015) during the same time period (Holy Week). For the analysis of tourist movements, the Markov chain was obtained for each period. In order to study the generation of routes geo-location was used in each case. The results show that even though GPS technology provided more information on the visited places, NFC technology facilitates more extensive information. In addition, NFC technology allowed the extraction of important information about the places visited, showing a wide number of sites visited and, therefore, providing greater value for the study. Finally, the results of the study provide a better understanding of how destination management organizations could develop more suitable alternatives of the customer services systems, the delivery of tourist information and the identification of sites with heavy use. Conclusively, this study helps to identify how to take better advantage of the marketing strategies through different tools that analyses tourism movements.

Background: To begin research with cross-thematic topics, an analysis is necessary that collects data and historical accounts about these topics. In the field of health and technology, this principle is not unknown. In this case, it is the interest of this investigation to inquire about the topics "wearable" and "health" in order to gather enough information to establish how it has been developed, what the current topics are and what areas it is planned to study in a near future. The purpose of this study is to analyse the growth of the wearable technology and health subject matter. This will create an account of the most relevant themes over time in this subject and their evolution. This study will have an emphasis on recent years, in order to see which themes may be important for future research and publications. Methods: This paper aims at making a bibliometric exploration using information from the Scopus database using the search chain “weareable AND health” within the years of 2000 to 2017. The bibliometric software SciMAT was used for data visualization and analysis. Results: The results obtained are an analysis of the growth rate that is presented in Scopus publications between 2000 and 2017. In addition, a bibliometric analysis is obtained through the SciMat software, which shows the relevant issues that arise through time and that may be relevant for future research. Conclusions: Publications associated with the search chain “Wearable AND Health” from 2000 to 2017 were generally in constant growth over the years. With the SciMAT software, the main theme that was found was that of monitoring systems. In addition, it shows how new themes that are highly relevant emerge, such as mobile technologies and the study of algorithms, which emerge as an evolution from signal processing.
