About this good practice
Digital twin, Big Data, IoT and Artificial Intelligence to support decision and policy making to better manage cultural heritage and reduce negative impacts
Resources needed
The solution can be set up in 1 year of work to integrate a minimal number of data as: people flow, environmental data, social media, KPI, and 3D modelling. The costs may strongly depend on the resolution and on the extension of the detailed area for modelling and analysis.
Evidence of success
The success is acknowledged by the Memorandum of Understanding signed by more than 30 entities, including HERIT DATA project partners and other Med and EU entities to adopt these tools, furthermore by the several KPIs monitored thanks to the data collected and analyzed with the Snap4city platform. The growth in the number of cities/organizations, at an international level, interested in this solution and the satisfaction references of current user represents undoubtedly another success element.
Potential for learning or transfer
The practice can be of interest since the issues tackled affect several cities and regions. The Snap4city digital twins and tools have the potential to be used in several areas considering that they embrace all the aspects related to cities management and cultural heritage. Information transfer has been already tested and performed by means of a mainstreaming model in which are described case studies facing the very same issues: Avila (Spain), Gozo (Malta), Sitges (Spain), Bruges (Belgium), Venice (Italy).
Furthermore, Snap4city approach is completely open source, and its community is open to contributions and support. At the same time the platform provides all the information and training courses in a totally open manner for everyone, directly by means of its website. Info and training enable not only for its usage but also for its installation on cloud and premises.
