Taiwan's Ministry of Environment Deploys Digital Twin to Simulate Urban Cooling

The digital twin will help the ministry identify optimal urban planning strategies to reduce the urban heat island effect.

The Taiwan Ministry of Environment has deployed a digital twin to simulate urban cooling and reduce the urban heat island effect in the country's cities. The digital twin will use real-time data from various sources to create a virtual replica of the urban environment. This will enable the ministry to identify optimal urban planning strategies to reduce the urban heat island effect and improve the overall livability of cities in Taiwan.
