Digital twin, a buzzword.
It's a real mapping of the city. Which in addition to a 3D model, will update itself according to events such as energy loss, water supply problems and so on.
To achieve this, there is a first layer. The 3D representation of the city.
The new oil of our era is data. Data is now free, accessible. This creates transparency and trust between the people and their leaders.
Imagine a 3D representation of your city, without lifting a finger or a foot. Without a large and expensive data acquisition campaign. Of course you will lose a little bit of accuracy but still ?
Here is the object of my project for the weekend (2 days) of 18 and 19 June 2022. I represented in 3D the city of Yamoussoukro.
Dataset :
- Google Building footprint [2021]
- Gbobal Human Settlements Layers [2018].
I spare you the technical details.
Click on the project link and wait around 2min, must be good.
To your pleasure.
