Japanese 3D simulation specialists 848 Forum8 are hosting the inaugural Interactive 3D Visualisation Conference in London 2012.

This free conference, titled ‘’The Application of 3D VR Simulation in Urban, Transport & Emergency Planning’’ is being held in The Wren Suite, St Paul’s Cathedral, London on Tuesday 20 November 2012.

The conference will consist of presentations from Arup, UK, 1692 TomTom, Netherlands, BMIA, France, GTA Geoinformatik, Germany, Ordnance Survey, UK, SIAS Paramics, UK, Sunderland University, UK and Forum8, Japan, who will cover many aspects of 3D VR simulation and visualisation and present ideas and principles in this ever developing area of technology.

Forum8’s 3D software VR-Design Studio (formerly UC-win/Road) is utilised in modern interactive 3D Simulation technology and offers a solution for urban and transport planning and design projects, either on its own or linked with third-party civil engineering 3D design tools and micro-simulation applications.

    Ordnance Survey (OS) will provide geospatial data to support the OmnviCAV project’s ambition of accelerating the safe deployment of autonomous vehicles (AVs) on the UK’s roads. The £3.9m initiative’s aim is to develop an artificial intelligence-based simulation model for testing autonomous cars safety. The simulation model will feature a 32km circuit of Oxfordshire roads, covering rural, urban, main roads and intersections and will be used to create and run different test scenarios.

  • Smoothing out city freight movements
    May 28, 2014
    David Crawford welcomes a national first. Urban freight movements, while commercially and socially vital, are a growing logistical headache for planners and people alike. Figures from France’s Lyon Laboratory of Transport Economics indicate that goods transport in major urban areas accounts for: 20% of traffic; 35% of CO2 emissions made by all urban trips; and 50% of the diesel used; while final km delivery runs account for 20% of the total cost of the transport chain.
