Abstract: Abstract The purpose of this paper is to analyze the digital information regarding Street art in Europe. The disaggregation of this information is a problem to analyze the European Street Art in the scientific, touristic and educational contexts. We use content analysis as a methodology to get the digital information on the European Street art. Then, we applied a descriptive analysis of the data. Findings show us that, from the general websites (295), the majority of them present basic information. On the other hand, in the scientific environment and from the papers databases, researchers publish their works on non-specialized journals, what generates a dispersion of the knowledge. However, in the last 2 years, Street art is a trend topic and the aggregation of the digital resources could enhance the development of new perspectives of this heritage as economic and scientific value in Europe. Otherwise, we are losing many cultural and educational opportunities of our muralist production in Europe.
