This book brings together cutting-edge exploratory research findings to show how a vision for sustainable communities can be enabled by digital transformation. It attempts to apply existing knowledge about digital transformation and sustainable communities and compare, interpret, diagnose, and evaluate a variety of digital solutions to ascertain their suitability for the delivery of a more sustainable built environment. Chapters examine a breadth of issues including how digital transformations could:Provide digital/physical working/living environments that anticipate emerging lifestylesBlend digital engagements into the physical engagements within the built environmentSupport business and social activity in physical and online venuesUse advanced information and community-oriented technologies for efficient management of urban servicesPromote sustainabilityExpress narratives that celebrate the experience of place and communityLeverage transformation of educational systemsFoster linkages between universities, and between universities and businessesFacilitate working relationships among small and large companiesFoster new processes and arrangements for innovation in the built environmentBy comparing the key principles of digital transformation with those of sustainable communities, the contributors seek to justify or discount the applicability of digital change for achieving more sustainable communities. The research presented in this book is essential reading for architecture, urban planning, quantity surveying, building surveying, real estate, and construction management professionals and academics.

Unifying the Field of Digital Twins for Urban Management presents a holistic and integrated approach to the rapidly evolving field of digital twins for urban management. The framework offers a structured approach that encompasses both theoretical underpinnings and practical applications. It aims to provide a foundation to support enhanced decision-making, optimised resource utilisation, and improved urban resilience and sustainability.

The book aims to address a lack of consistency, coherence and uniformity within current approaches, and offers a unified framework to facilitate collaboration and knowledge exchange across diverse areas, such as urban management, systems thinking, data science and social science.

Key features include

a systematic framework (DATUM) to unify the field of digital twins for urban managementcoverage of theoretical foundations and a step-by-step methodology to guide digital twin-based interventionsa standardised language to facilitate classification, documentation and communication of digital twin use casesvalidation of the DATUM framework through a combination of focus group research, case studies and action research, ensuring applicability and effectiveness.

Unifying the Field of Digital Twins for Urban Management is designed for a wide audience, including digital twin practitioners, researchers, urban managers and policy makers interested in harnessing the potential of digital twins to improve urban environments.
