MODERN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES FOR SIMULATION OF THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT AND CREATION OF DIGITAL DUPLICATE OF CITY OBJECTS

Abstract

The current stage of the development of the construction industry is its digitalization, which requires the transformation of processes and models based on the use of modern information technologies (IT) for the development of digital platforms and duplicates. Urban planning is a complex process of controlled development of the city, and the problem of digitalization of the city as a system as a whole has not lost its relevance. The research examines the problem of selection, application and integration of modern information technologies for modeling the urban environment and creating digital duplicates of city objects as components of the Smart City system. An overview of the main IT for the application of the methodological platform of information modeling of cities (City Information Modeling) based on Building Information Modeling (BIM), Geographic Information System (GIS) and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, which make it possible to combine city data of various spatial scales and time dimensions. A conceptual IT scheme for urban space management is proposed based on the integration of three components: the Artificial Intelligence system, Big Data technology, and the CIM methodological platform. The requirements for the selection of information technology for the creation of a digital double of an urban object were studied, which made it possible to propose an integration scheme of IT modeling of the urban environment and the creation of a digital double of the city. Such integration will help to efficiently process large and complex data sets, use information about the past and present to predict the future, implement digital reproduction of a physical object and create a digital urban spatial object, namely a CIM object, which should become a digital basis for intelligent planning, construction, management and operation of a smart city.
