TwinBy
Qualification for the independent development of digital city models in municipalities
Creative Climate Cities, 2023
The first "TwinBy" qualification programme for 18 Bavarian municipalities began in March 2023. Funded by the Bavarian State Ministry for Digital Affairs and coordinated by bayern.innovativ, the programme enabled the first steps to be taken in the municipalities developing their own Urban Digital Twins.
The qualification programme was based on building competencies in Bavarian local municipalities in the Smart District Data Infrastructure (SDDI) reference architecture approach, to help municipalities design the data-related, content-related, and organizational foundations for the development of a geo-based digital twin. After building knowledge around the SDDI approach, municipalities were able to develop their own Urban Digital Twin models to better perform analyses and simulations and make planning decisions more sustainable.
Creative Climate Cities worked together with Virtual City Systems (VCS) and CADFEM and crafted a “blended learning” programme including online webinars, an e-learning course, as well as in-person workshops to support the municipal pilot project owners to take the first steps in translating the SDDI concept into fully functioning urban digital twin for locally defined use cases.Listen in on the keynote speech by Dr. Nadine Kuhla von Bergmann at the kick-off event at the Bavarian State Ministry for Digital Affairs in March 2023.
