About this talk

This session explores the success of the Breathing Cities Digital Twin projects in Leeds with Leeds City Council and Mott MacDonald. A SaaS based solution allowing for real-time processing of nearly 1TB/s with over 84% Open Data from sources including ESA, NASA, and IoT providers. The Leeds Digital Twin combines detailed topography with air quality, footfall, and traffic data allowing rapid analysis of several scenarios around the impacts of pedestrianisation on pollution. This is combined with additional support for responding to Covid-19 to allow the Local Authority to explore and understand how companies are or will be returning to their workplaces. As part of this the Twin has been deployed within Mott Macdonald's Leeds office to understand social distancing within the building and the implications of office layouts and the relationship to the city's Covid public transport planning.
