The project is based on the successful Simstad project, where researchers at Link\u00f6ping University developed a neural network to create a digital twin of Norrk\u00f6ping. The purpose of the Visual City Platform is to provide Sweden’s cities with LiU researchers’ expertise in visualization and image analysis, as well as a variety of data and methods, so that the cities can then independently create their own digital twins. This can ultimately have a number of positive effects for both society and business. \n \nA central part of the project is the use of AI-based methods, through deep neural networks, synthesis and image analysis. This makes the end result stronger and allows some parts of the process to be automated, such as mapping and 3D reconstruction. \nThe work of the Visual Sweden City Platform could play a crucial role in the development of smart and sustainable cities in Sweden. \n \nThe project runs from 2024-2026 and is funded by FORMAS and Smart built environment, in collaboration with Link\u00f6ping University and Visual Sweden. Other partners are Maxar, VTI and the municipalities of Malm\u00f6, Norrk\u00f6ping and Link\u00f6ping.<\/p>\n\n
