Summary

The present paper approaches the new short-term rentals phenomenon in terms of a negative extension that has to do with the difficulty of finding permanent residence in tourist "saturated" areas, such as Chania, located in Crete- Greece.Ιn the age of "Internet of Things / Everything" and of Big Data, Greece proceeds with legislation in establishing rules and adopting specific methods concerning both the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of its buildings with the ultimate goal, the monitoring and control of its built environment and, on the other hand, the Citizens’ s control through their obligations in relation to them. In this context, arrangements such as the "Building’s Identity", along with announcements for the creation of new, larger in volume and fewer in amount, databases such as the "Building’s Electronic Registry" and the Citizens’ s "Estate Status", rolls-out a new era of information control regarding the relations between Citizens – their properties -and State. This creates a unified system of reference and electronic computerization of information that monitors the built environment and, it is believed that this will achieve a) quick control, b) cross-checking of the elements of the buildings along with each Citizen, c) transparency of operations and d) minimization of bureaucracy both for the benefit of the State and the Citizen. Based on that, it is assumed that, in the near future, the basic data concerning the buildings will, in addition, be “open data” and accessible to the Citizens, without necessarily having a legitimate interest in those for viewing those data.More specific, the paper focuses on the analysis of the institutional context, referred to short-term rentals , the approach of the legal regime on rents, and the analysis of case studies on applications around digital mappings using different spatial information each time so to capture them, at first, and then process them, so to draw out relevant conclusions, as parts of wider spatial optimizations of the city. Finally, the author suggests the creation of a “real time” rental search tool, placed on the –already existing map platform of- chaniagis, as part of a bigger strategy of resolving the problem caused by the defective short-term rentals regime.
