Seoul City builds the nation's first urban problem solving simulation'Digital Twin S-Map
Although there were 3D maps in the past, it is the first in Korea to build a digital twin capable of analyzing and simulating urban problems for the entire city. It is difficult to find a case in overseas cities.
The United States, the United Kingdom, and Singapore have established digital twin environments that are similar to reality and are being used for policies such as facility management, traffic accident prevention, and disaster response. City) and Jeonju (some areas) are conducting various experiments on a small scale, but there has been no case of building a digital twin for the entire city.
Why it’s relevant to Nextspace
The article may be of interest to Nextspace Partners involved with ‘platform twins’ - the building of one digital twin model made public for limitless end uses. This may be the case for a government, city, university, precinct holder. In this case the platform model was to be opened for envisaged use including:
- Urban planning decision-making
- Real-time fire monitoring for fire prediction
- Realization of urban wind roads
- Decision-making by committees such as urban development
- Public building design contest evaluation
- Fire-fighting IoT sensor technology
- An urban climate analysis model
- Improving urban environmental problems such as urban planning, prevention of forest fire spread, and reduction of fine dust and heat islands by grasping the wind path, strength and direction according to the topography of Seoul
- Analysis of wind road impact according to building layout
- Forest fire spread prevention model
- Measures to reduce fine dust and heat island phenomena
- Citizen participation
- Non-face-to-face tourism
- Reproduction of cultural assets
- Provide 1 street views that are not on private maps such as traditional markets and alleys
- Citizen Participation 3D Virtual Construction Experience Service
