LGA Annual Conference 2017

'Building an open digital asset for urban design, planning and stakeholder engagement'

Simon Mabey and Ian Dunsford from Watford Borough council presented at the Innovation Zone as part of the Local Government Association Annual conference 2017. Shortlisted from over 100 entries Digitalurban.place were selected to present how local authorities can be a catalyst in establishing an open digital 3D model. Simon explained the approaches and the lessons learnt, whilst Ian provided some the first hand experiences they have had using a digital urban model as part of their planning application process.

The presentation was well received with one delegate commenting it was 'it was his favourite session he had attended at the conference!'
