Digital Twins - Enabling More Sustainable Cities with Hybrid Data

In the context of smart cities, 3D digital twins are the basis for all kinds of planning processes. To keep up with the fast change in cities, the data needs to be available more frequently and more efficiently. At the same time, the data has to be suitable for automated analysis and feature extraction. By combining LiDAR and imaging components into one sensor, hybrid systems enable the simultaneous capture of all required information to provide more reliable results. Hexagon has partnered with cities around the world to create 3D digital twins that are available on-demand for more informed and faster decision-making.
