Digital Twin Smart City Visualization with MoE-Based Personal Thermal Comfort Analysis.

Digital twin technology us used to create accurate virtual representations of objects or systems. Digital twins span the object's life cycle and keep updated with real-time data. Therefore, their simulation capabilities can be combined with deep learning to create a system that simulates scenarios, enabling analysis. As cities continue to grow and the demand for sustainable development increases, digital twin technology, combined with AI-driven analysis, will play a critical role in shaping the future of urban environments. The ability to accurately simulate and manage complex systems in real time opens up new possibilities for optimizing energy usage, reducing costs, and improving the quality of life for urban residents. In this study, a digital twin application is built to visualize a smart area in South Korea, utilizing a deep learning model for personal thermal comfort analysis, which can be useful for managing and saving building and household energy consumption. Using Cesium for Unreal, a powerful tool for integrating 3D geospatial data, and leveraging DataSmith to convert 3D data into Unreal Engine format, this study also contributes a roadmap for smart city application development, which is currently considered to be lacking. By creating a robust framework for smart city applications, this research not only addresses current challenges but also lays the groundwork for future innovations in urban planning and management.
