Delhi Plans 3D Digital Twin Under Master Plan 2047
Delhi is planning to make a detailed computer copy of the city.
This copy is called a digital twin.
It will use maps, information from sensors and data from government systems.
Planners can test ideas on the computer before building them in real life.
They can study how new projects might affect roads, buildings and other city systems.
The plan also aims to help government agencies share information more easily.
It follows national programs that use digital maps for infrastructure and city improvements.
The Master Plan for Delhi-2047 was notified on Thursday.
The Delhi Development Authority is developing a 3D digital twin of Delhi under the Master Plan for Delhi-2047.
The model will combine geographic information system data with real-time inputs from urban sensors and government systems.
Officials will use the digital replica to simulate development scenarios and assess their likely effects before construction.
The plan includes layered infrastructure datasets, geo-referenced maps and regularly updated digital databases.
The Master Plan for Delhi-2047 was notified on Thursday and aligns with national geospatial planning initiatives.
