dc.description.abstractFinding a new home in a large city has increasingly become more complex, as people are concerned with not only the estate itself but also with its surroundings. The 15-Minute City concept, thinks of cities as a way to ensure that their residents within a 15-minute radius, can fulfill six essential functions: home, work, commerce, health care, education, and entertainment; which varies according to a chosen travel mode. To help people find properties that would fit them according to this concept, we have built an application that aims to provide an intuitive user interface that guides the user through the important decision of buying a house. To present relevant information to the user, we gathered information from three relevant sources, each with its unique challenges. The first source is estate data, extracted from the websites of local real estate agencies; second, city data, with points of interest relevant to the six essential functions mentioned previously; and at last, the user data provided by the user itself through our profile system which lets us understand his needs. System-wise, we built a reliable application following the microservices architecture guidelines, which future proofs our solution by segregating each part of the project and allowing it to scale easily, development and feature wise. The application scrapes, ingests, transforms and stores data regularly. The complete infrastructure is containerized using Docker and orchestrated by Kubernetes. With this application, we provided a scalable solution that allows users to select the best real estate taking into consideration the surrounding environment, tailored to their day-to-day needs, something that, as far as we know, is a novelty on real estate agency websites.pt_PT
