The EU Urban Mobility Observatory published a case study on 25 November 2024, detailing how the City of Aachen is using 'digital twin' technology to enhance urban management and sustainability. The study highlights Aachen's comprehensive data platform and 3D model focused on transport infrastructure, which supports improved decision-making, coordination, and public engagement. It outlines an overview of the initiatives in action, their outcomes, challenges, opportunities, and transferability.
