Digital Twin: Madrid in 3D, decisions in real time
Georeferenced 3D model of Madrid on ArcGIS. Integrates thermal layers, urban tree cover, buildings and risk zones. Used to plan in real time — including heatwave prevention.
The problem
The complexity of modern cities requires advanced tools for urban planning and management. The lack of an integrated, real-time view of urban assets limits the ability to anticipate problems, optimize resources and respond effectively to emergencies such as heatwaves or extreme weather events.
How it works
Madrid’s Digital Twin is a georeferenced 3D model built on the ArcGIS platform. It integrates data from multiple sources: thermal layers, urban tree information, building data and risk zones. It allows scenarios to be simulated, the impact of urban policies to be analyzed, and interventions to be planned in real time, improving the city’s resilience.
Who it's for
Public administrations, urban planning and emergency management departments. Urban planners, engineers and architects who need a comprehensive tool for designing and operating smart cities.
