Scaling up HCU?s Urban Planning Toolkit in India
Digital Toolkit TOSCA supports integrated and sustainable urban development in four Indian Cities
In the new cooperation project with GIZ and working on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the chair of Digital City Science at HafenCity University 澳门现金网_澳门赌博现金网-官网 (HCU) aims to support Indian cities in the field of climate-resilient planning and integrated land-use development. The project will introduce the Toolkit for Open and Sustainable City Planning and Analysis (TOSCA) to stakeholders in four cities in the Indian states of Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka and Telangana.
TOSCA has been developed in cooperation with the GIZ since 2019 by the chair of Digital City Science (Prof. J?rg Rainer Noennig) and has already been tested in the Indian city of Bhubaneswar in the last years. By involving local authorities, enterprises and academic institutions in more cities, it is envisioned to bring TOSCA into broader application. In addition, the project will extend the functional range of the toolkit in response to specific local needs. To secure the continuous application of the toolkit throughout India, the project partnership will also build up requisite local human capacities by trainings, workshops and educational formats. A kick-off workshop was carried out in Hyderabad, India by the TOSCA team in the end of April 2023. Together with GIZ, and participants and representatives from the partner states of Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka and Telangana, the workshop enabled interactive brainstorming sessions to collect new use-cases to address critical urban challenges in Indian cities.
The project is unique as it provides advanced yet easy-to-use technology that enables local stakeholders to plan their urban environments with open source data in a highly participatory way. 澳门现金网_澳门赌博现金网-官网ing from February 2023, the project will run for approximately two years under a grant agreement with the BMZ.
LIG II: End of Project
Data-driven research project on real estate management comes to an end
NLP and geoparsing helps the 澳门现金网_澳门赌博现金网-官网 city government to optimize parcel finding procedures
The research project LIG II comes to an end. Its main objectives were to include a geoparsing concept and build a semi-automatic process to analyse free text data. In addition to that, the LIG Finder web application was further developed – a prototype of it has been built in LIG I, which started in 2020.
LIG I and II were led by the research group Digital City Science with Prof. J?rg N?nnig as head of the team, based at HafenCity University 澳门现金网_澳门赌博现金网-官网 (HCU). It is a cooperation between the HCU and the Landesbetrieb Immobilienmanagement und Grundverm?gen (LIG). The project began with focusing on building an interactive web tool for optimizing site selection.
The LIG Finder Application follows the client-server architecture. In the updated version, the research team used Maplibre Gl JS, because of its superior rendering performance and its 3D rendering potentials. For the semi-automatic? geoparsing workflow, the DCS-team used Python for the following steps: data clean preprocessing, Location Extraction, Geo coordinate conversion (Geocoding with Nominatim API), Keyword analysis, Sentiment analysis (with VADER) and Topic modelling (with Structured Topic Modelling, STM).
The foundings of LIG II will be published in the journal paper “Data Politics in the Built Environment” (author: Dr. Filipe Mello Rose, among others). For LIG III, the DCS team plans to adapt AI tools such as ChatGPT and ChatGeoPT to train a real estate language model and further transfer the LIG location finder concept to other domains of urban knowledge management.
Hightech for Smart Social Strategies
Research cooperation between HCU 澳门现金网_澳门赌博现金网-官网 and Technion - The Israel Institute of Technology
The Smart Social Strategies Lab at Technion–Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa and the chair of Digital City Science at HCU 澳门现金网_澳门赌博现金网-官网 have initiated a research cooperation on digital interactive technologies in the field of sociospatial urban development.
At the beginning of 2023, a first ignition phase for an envisioned long-term research partnership between Technion and HCU has been successfully accomplished. Supported with an incentive funding from HCU, first joint activities of research groups in both institutions have been carried out over a period of 1 year, including scientific visits, joint workshops and conferences. Partner at Technion is the the Smart Social Strategy Lab (3SL) directed by Prof. Meirav Gutman, an interdisciplinary group that investigates the usage of geographical and sociographical data for urban strategy- and policy-making. Methodically and technologically, the group?s research complements very well with interactive planning technologies that are created at the chair of Digital City Science (Prof. J?rg Rainer Noennig) at HCU 澳门现金网_澳门赌博现金网-官网. The cross-connection of both approaches opens up promising opportunities for supporting the planning of urban neighbourhoods with state-of-the-art tools and methodologies. On HCU side, the cooperation was coordinated by Dr. Jan Barski und Dr. Filipe Mello Rose. The overall goal was to explore first topics for a common research agenda on which both institutions will join forces in the next years. Joint publications and funding applications for example to the German-Israeli-Fund have prepared a solid basis for various future cooperation in which Technion?s spectacular Hadar Interaction Theatre – a large scale facility for digital citizen participation – will play a key role.?
TOSCA toolkit for flood simulation in Kochi (India)
HCU Researchers Support Flood Simulation Cases in India
In the context of the EU program “International Urban Regional Cooperations” (IURC), researchers of HCU?s chair for Digital City Science have adapted the TOSCA toolkit for flood simulation in Kochi (India).
At the end of march an international project cooperation of HCU Digital City Science with the cities of Kochi (India) and Messina (Italy) has been successfully accomplished. After a runtime of half a year, a final project workshop has concluded the results and findings of the international initiative.
At the HCU chair of Digital City Science (Prof. Noennig), the project was led by Arjama Mukherjee, a trained architect and city scientist, who coordinated the research work of the HCU team. The team also included the GIS developer Mehmet Akif Ortak and international urban development expert Maria Moleiro Dale.
Cooperation partners involved in the projects were the city of Kochi, the city of Messina, University of Messina and the IURC program of the European Union. The project had started with the ambition to define new use cases for Toolkit for Sustainable City Planning and Analysis (TOSCA), especially in the field of Flood Simulation.? TOSCA that was developed at the chair over the past years and implemented already in India, Ecuador and Palestine.
To determine the new use case, the partnership has carried out several online workshops, joint research and technical work in the field of flood simulation and modelling. The main outcome of the project is a prototype module based on Machine Learning algorithms that help to predict flood scenarios in the future.
Unique and innovative about the project was the intense and close ad hoc cooperation, that was brokered by the IURC after they had heard about the potentials of TOSCA. The results of the project will help to make cities more resilient against floods by exploiting the opportunities of digital urban data and intelligent geo-information analysis. It is expected to lead to follow-up activities between the cities, first steps are being taken, and first concepts have been drafted.
The project was supported by IURC which targets and supports strategic partnerships of cities worldwide on topics of urban and regional development.
