1st One-day Conference                   on Service TV

Service Information is already, in 2005, a reality present in many televisions. Despite the analogue system, these televisions seek to provide an added value to their programming through the publication of news, information about the weather, the traffic or cultural events, among others.

The arrival of the DTT ushers in, in addition, a whole world of interactive possibilities for service information to citizens – the viewer can check free and image-enriched information of his or her interest on demand, all within the reach of the remote control.

These technological opportunities represent a challenge of service to the citizen, not just for televisions but also for the administrations that have the opportunity of taking advantage of its potential.

TVC Multimèdia [ now Activa Multimèdia ], with its acknowledged career in the development of text publication systems for analogue channels, and in interactive applications for the DTT, organises, together with the Catalan Broadcasting Corporation, this first One-day Conference with the aim of reflecting and sharing knowledge with all the actors involved, and to get familiarised with the experience from other countries, in order to start building the next stage of service information.
