City Intelligence Lab -Shaping Future Cities with AI & Simulation
Digital Solutions for Integrated Urban Development
AITs City Intelligence Lab is an interactive digital platform applying novel methods for the urban development practice of the future. As an incubator for integrated solutions the lab fosters the co-creation of digital planning workflows from cities to buildings scale and instantly evaluates and visualises their performance in terms of climate, energy, mobility and circularity. AITs approach is connecting parametric models, AI-driven interdisciplinary simulation workflows and interactive design interfaces for stakeholder engagement to create resilient and sustainable cities.
Innovation Platform for Collaborative Urban Design
The CIL brings key stakeholders and decision makers within the field of future urban development on one table. To ensure the symbiosis of scientific excellence and application, the CIL collaborates with representatives of the private sector, academia and municipal sector to review and shape the lab’s agenda.
The CIL‘s facilities include its immersive meeting space, with interactive projection walls and augmented reality models that create an enhanced collaborative planning environment. The CIL uses state of the art machine learning models to conduct a rapid assessment of complex planning situations in real time, enabling a powerful decision support platform that transforms the urban planning process at every step: from design to evaluation, analyses, communication and comparison of design alternatives.
What We Do – Tools and Insights for Smart Urban Development
Real-Time AI Impact Assessment for Urban Scenarios
We offer AI-driven impact assessment in real-time. From microclimate simulations, renewable energy potentials to mobility and circularity aspects, our self-trained AI models enable reliable real-time decision making.
Data-Driven Urban Planning – From Optimization to Decision
We iterate through hundreds of designs and distil actionable insights from thousands of data points and simulation results to support data-driven decision making.
Engaging Stakeholders Through Interactive Visualization & Co-Creation
A design is only as good as its communication. We develop tailor-made solutions for visualizing and communicating design scenarios and simulation results. From interactive web-based dashboards to VR and AR apps our models are designed to enable stakeholder engagement.
