TarfayaPedia

TarfayaPedia is the first project to embrace a whole city in the Arabic Worlds. The project aims to cover every single notable place, person, artefact, plant and animal in Tarfaya in as many languages as possible.
TarfayaPedia uses QRpedia codes, a type of bar code a smartphone can read through its camera (using one of the many free QR readers available) that takes you to a article in your language. QR codes are extremely useful, as physical signs have no way of displaying the same amount of information and in a potentially huge number of languages.
Articles have coordinates (geotags) to allow a virtual tour of the town using (or the layer on Google Streetview) and are available in augmented reality software including Layar.
TarfayaPedia does not use standard black and white QR codes, in order to differentiate between our codes and other schemes and individual's codes.
