  • IP0318 - Digital twin city and its application for crisis management in transport
    Jan MARTOLOS

    City digital twins are a virtual representation of a city's physical assets in one interconnected environment. This enables the creation of complex simulation models that can be updated and changed (real-time) as their physical equivalents change. This form of interactivity brings new value to the city, since decisions can be made using a unified data view. Paper will show one of the layers [...]

    Ondrej UHLIK

    With increasing interest in the use of public transport, attention needs to be paid to the operational layout and safety of transport nodes. Microscopic agent-based models are increasingly being used to analyse evacuation scenarios during emergencies. The calibration of these models is often problematic due to the lack of data associated with a specific object (e.g. number of people). The use [...]
