The Italian city of Milan is pioneering a new era of urban management with its comprehensive digital twin of the metropolitan area. It was developed in a municipal project involving four leading geoinformation companies.
The project to create a digital twin of Milan involved the Municipality of Milan and four leading geoinformation companies: Compagnia Generale Ripreseaeree (CGR SpA) for aerial survey, CycloMedia for mobile mapping, Esri Italia SpA for data management, and Servizi Informazione Territoriale (SIT Srl) for topographic survey. The Laboratory of Geomatics at the University of Pavia also participated in the data quality analysis and assessment. The resulting digital twin offers a rich and diverse dataset, capturing various aspects of the urban environment from different perspectives.
