Course description

The course “3D, BIM and Digital Twins for Urban Planning” aims to introduce the major concepts, definitions and facts related to our 3D urban environment. The course discusses 3D data, and interoperability challenges related to them. Indeed, to combine different data sets, a solid understanding of 3D geometric and semantic modelling is required, as well as knowledge and skills on the appropriate tools and processes for the use and analysis of the data.

The course is conceived as a set of basic lectures to explain and frame 3D geospatial data and how they can be used in different contexts and applications. The lectures also provide the background on BIM and Digital Twins as technology, the international standards they are built upon, and more. Then the course will zoom in on respectively BIM and Digital Twins with focus on specific interoperability challenges, including an extensive demo on Digital Twins.
