More than 50% of the world’s population lives in cities, and urban populations are set to more than double by 2050: that means nearly 7 of 10 people will live in cities. This unprecedented growth challenges cities to keep pace to achieve safe, sustainable communities.
Urban digital twins can help. Hexagon’s definition of an urban digital twin consists of multiple layers. The first is the “digital city,” or a digital replica of the city. Adding data from sensors, alarms and other devices leads to the “connected city.” When AI, simulations and analytics are applied to this data, the “intelligent city” is realized.
Urban digital twins provide leaders with unprecedented insights and actionable information so they can make more informed decisions, improve the quality of life for residents and enhance the overall sustainability and resilience of cities.
