Bedrijfsomschrijving Urban Strategy technology developed by TNO allows cities, knowledge institutes (e.g. Universities) and private stakeholders to build interactive, integral and predictive digital twins of cities. With these predictive digital twins cities can then predict the impact of spatial policy choices on air quality, noise pollution, costs and health. A set of basic indicators makes it clear where policies are needed or where they’re not required. Urban Strategy is one of its kind because it allows these policies to be calculated in minutes and can calculate for multiple domains.
