Digital twins for secure, green and healthy future cities

Most countries have been using digital twins for effective planning, designing and management of the cities. While there are different kinds of systems within a city, in this webinar, we discussed four core systems of the city namely:

  • Healthcare system
  • Water management system
  • Safety and security system
  • Environment system.

Our expert panel shared insights on – How to create city twins? Ways to predict the city's future and tips on empowering city administrators to use digital twins to improve health, safety, traffic, environment, infrastructure in cities.
