Geodan partners with Brainport Smart District

Working on digital twin Brandevoort together

On 28 February 2019, Geodan partnered up with Brainport Smart District. In this ten-year project, we will be working together to develop a ‘digital twin’ of the Helmond district of Brandevoort. The smartest district in Europe.

Founded on Data

Geodan amasses all available digital information in the digital twin and uses it to build a digital copy of Brandevoort. Citizens and policymakers own this virtual district and they can even visit it with the help of smart 3D models, giving them a realistic look at the impact of future plans and processes. What would be the best place for a future row of terraced homes, a cycling path or intersection, for instance, and would a wildlife crossing be needed? Experiencing the various scenarios with their own eyes in a virtual environment can help stakeholders better understand and paint a better mental image of choices and decisions.

Smart and attractive

randevoort is a neighborhood in development, and, naturally, its digital twin follows it every step of the way. Step by step, this gives an increasingly better picture of a neighborhood that appeals to as many people as possible.

“Brainport Smart District meshes seamlessly with our vision that connecting data about the physical environment and having citizens experience it are crucial in order to make the right decisions when designing that environment.”
