Background: Smart City, Platform Urbanism… • the relationship between “platforms” and urban space and society is impossible to ignore (Barns, 2020). • “into the pockets of urbanites (urban life)” via networked devices and data • How people will participate in smart cities and platforms

Purposes & Objectives: Constructing a Digital City on a Web-3D Platform • Increasing access to data for the citizens who are not specialized in GIS • Everything manipulation is web browser based. • Display it as fast as possible and use it in other areas • Developed on open source software basis • In this study, we propose a method for seamlessly analyzing the raw data of urban models on the web. • This platform can be applied to urban spaces of varying scales by focusing on techniques for visualizing the administrative data generated in a city.
Study Area: Susono City in Shizuoka Pref. https://global.toyota/jp/newsroom/corporate/31170943.html Mt. Fuji • Area total: 138.12 km2 • Population: Total 50,916 – aged 65 and over: 26.8% • Toyota has announced that, starting two years from now, it will develop “Woven City” into a former factory site. • Mayor announced the concept of the “Susono Digital Creative City” in March 2020.
The Use Cases for Developing Digital Cities • Think deeply about local issues using data in Digital Susono Research Group since 2019 • The topics are public facilities, public transportation, urban planning/optimization, industry & tourism, and road management. Issues Target Task Public facilities A state of mind that citizens can use with confidence. The public facilities management debate is not deep enough. Public transport ation With no one bothering to use bus routes to get around. Bus ridership is low, and at this rate, the bus route cannot be maintained. Urban planning Improving the station area's foothold and the state of interaction between the various generations. Directing and consolidating urban functions and residential areas, which are daily life service facilities. Industry and tourism Regardless of size, the industry as a whole is capable of leading the region. No consideration has been given to addressing the impact of Waven City once it is built. Road managem ent Accidents among road facility users are now preventable. Difficulty in ascertaining the appropriate timing for the repair and replacement of road facilities.

Optimizing the display speed on the browser • Firefox v.67.04 • Front page（Zoom16): memory usage: 180Mb CPU usage:10% • Adding dynamic data – People flow: 20-30Mb – Point cloud data: 100Mb – Memory usage: +60-120Mb – CPU usage :20-30% – GPU usage : 30%
Conclusions 1. Developed an efficient way to convert and integrate 13 types of data. 2. Considered the architectural design for unified visualization 3. Developed the necessary functions, after which we reduced the data capacity, memory, and CPU usage on the browser. 1. we found that the types and volumes of data related to digital cities have various formats. However, there are three significant patterns (GeoJSON, JSON, and Tileset) that allow for easy integration of data. 2. we determined that it is possible to combine Mapbox GL JS and Deck.GL to create multiple dynamic visualizations with patterns. 3. we mainly used the first display and a web browser. The performance was measured for point cloud and human flow animations. The memory usage and caches did not increase, and it was found that the load was constant.
Future works • Optimized display of point cloud data – point clouds have a different angle of view and scale that are suitable for display on a 3D map. Because the data volumes are different, they should be defined using bounding boxes. • To practical use of this platform in real disaster prevention, urban and land optimization “planning” – Almost visualization using the data accumulated in the past. Towards data-driven participatory consensus building. • Enriching the digital twin environment – the fusion of BIM data, including the attributes and structures within the building, and the challenge of large- scale flow data, such as sensing data, necessitates.
