Geospatial Visualization for Urban Revitalization
Metropolis International training Institute Mashhad organised this webinar to highlight the importance of geospatial localisation tools in the urban revitalisation process. In this session, after a background on geospatial localisation in general, we reviewed a couple of redevelopment / revitalisation projects in Victoria, Australia over the last a few years and then explored the concept of the Digital Twins in Fishermans Bend, Melbourne.
Urban renewal, redevelopment, and revitalisation projects have the potential to rehabilitate and better utilise land and space to create employment opportunities, create diverse housing options, stimulate the local economy and attract investments.
Computer Aided Design (CAD) systems have been extensively utilised to assist urban experts to have a better understanding of the proposed urban redevelopment projects. Over the last 30 years, such technologies have been an inseparable part of any large-scale redevelopments.
Digital Twins has also been part of this visualisation journey; and much more than that. In this presentation, after a background on visualisation in general, we reviewed a couple of redevelopment / revitalisation projects in Victoria, Australia over the last a few years and then explored the concept of the Digital Twins in Fishermans Bend, Melbourne.
