The Barcelona City Council and the Barcelona Supercomputing Center have presented the first results of a collaborative smart platform called a Digital Twin. 

The platform allows visualization of the possibility of locally implementing the 15-minute city concept.

  • This proof of concept is a starting point for more detailed analyses.
  • The digital twin has made it possible to visualize the coverage within a 10-minute walk of the metro stops, libraries, electric charging points, Bicing stations, health facilities, and distribution of green spaces in the city.
  • This project aims to understand the urban phenomenon via data analysis, the evaluation of resources, and the accessibility of services.
  • Digital Twins will help the Barcelona City Council make the best decisions on improving the citizens' quality of life.
