Speaker: Dr Daniel Mitchell
Globally, we are rallying toward a sustainable future, aiming to utilize more sustainable fuels and new technologies to meet net-zero targets. While some technologies provide incremental impacts to contribute to these goals, more radical changes are required across the transport sector to reduce carbon emissions, as currently 74.5% of transport emissions come from road vehicles. What will this future architecture look like? How can we provide the necessary assurances for future investment? This presentation will highlight the opportunities provided by Digital Twins and offer insights through an interactive demonstration of some of the methods TransiT is using for the Port of Dover via Unreal Engine, Cesium and Bentley Systems iTwin.
This event is free but ticketed.
