3D modelling for City Digital Twins  

This course is suitable for all specializations of ITC and students from UT (e.g., Civil Engineering, Computer Science, or Creative Technology). It aims to provide the student with knowledge of different 3D city/building modelling methods (as a base for Digital Twins), based on geospatial information. The students will be given the opportunity to practice with a variety of applications (e.g., GIS, BIM, image-based, gaming, or Virtual reality and Augmented reality) to develop and interpret their own 3D city/building model. To achieve this, theoretical and practical activities where the student can learn different 3D city/building modelling techniques and methods, used in a variety of applications, based on geospatial data are used. The student will have the opportunity to work on a 3D modelling/Digital Twin assignment.

An active learning approach will be applied to the lectures Lectures are supported by PPT, videos, and references to reading material The students will have practical sessions and an individual assignment to practice what they learned from the theory The students will have the unique opportunity to select and practice the usage of a variety of open and closed-source geospatial and gaming solutions for 3D city/building model creation (e.g. FME, VR/AR apps, Blender, SketchUp, CityEngyne, Unity3D, Unreal Engine 5 and Twinmotion among other)
