The City Digital Twins Summit brings together Finland's growing city digital twin ecosystem, connecting municipalities, technology providers, research partners, and public sector organisations. Hosted by Helsinki XR Center, the summit addresses the rapidly evolving field of urban digital twins.
The programme features presentations on digital twin platforms in use across Finnish cities, technical workshops on 3D city modelling and data integration, panel discussions on governance and data standards, and demonstrations of immersive visualisation technologies including extended reality (XR) applications for urban planning.
The summit reflects Finland's strong position in digital twin development, building on expertise in geospatial data, building information modelling (BIM), and open data. Finnish cities including Helsinki, Espoo, and Tampere have been pioneers in developing comprehensive 3D city models for energy planning, traffic simulation, and citizen participation.
