Southeast Asia’s New Benchmark! 51WORLD Assists Jakarta, Indonesia in Building a New Generation of Digital Twin CIM Platforms

Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia, is facing a severe “urban crisis” due to various factors such as urban pollution, rising sea levels, and population expansion. Additionally, frequent natural disasters like floods and earthquakes, cast a shadow over the city’s development.

To meet the refined and intelligent management needs of Jakarta, working with local strategic partner PT. Garuda Visi Nusantara (GAVIN) 51WORLD has been deeply involved in the construction of Indonesia’s Jakarta CIM platform. This platform, through advanced technologies such as multi-source data integration, spatial computation analysis, and cloud-native architecture, provides comprehensive and efficient data support and services for the government of Jakarta, Indonesia, aiding in the city’s digital transformation and intelligent upgrade.

Let’s explore how 51WORLD’s accumulated wisdom and experience play a key role in Jakarta’s digital transformation!

Recreating “Jakarta” in the Digital World

1 Detailed Replication of Southeast Asia’s Largest City, Jakarta

As one of the few megacities in Indonesia, Jakarta and its surrounding areas accommodate nearly 30 million people. Here, you can see the integration of traditional culture with modern skyscrapers, and the bustling urban scenery is adjacent to simple and retro villages. The diverse and complex urban ecology brings endless vitality to Jakarta, but also poses serious challenges for urban planning and management.

By integrating a suite of advanced technologies including multi-rendering engines, 3D Geographic Information Systems (3DGIS), Mixed Reality (MR), and Artificial Intelligence (AI), 51WORLD has meticulously reconstructed the 700 square kilometers of Jakarta’s landscape with all elements, creating an awe-inspiring, large-scale urban vista. The platform imports a variety of heterogeneous data form multiple sources such as Geographic Information System (GIS), Building Information Modeling (BIM) data, Internet of Things (IoT) data, and operational business data, achieving precise mapping of diverse data and information. A unified, scalable, and real-time updating digital urban infrastructure has been established, providing robust digital support for the city management of Jakarta.

2 Holistic 3D Perception of the City

On this digital city foundation, from the macro urban building groups to the micro streets and alleys, from static building layouts to dynamic people and vehicle flows, managers can have a panoramic view.

Like being equipped with a pair of “eyes that see through everything,” they can check the current Air Quality Index (AQI), detailed weather, temperature, and humidity in each district, statistical data on the population of various age groups over the past three years, trends in the inflation index, and vehicle type statistics, achieving a three-dimensional and all-around perception of the city’s operation.

In addition, the platform supports the access of external data formats and model management such as OSGB, BIM, GIS data, OGC services, and FBX, ensuring real-time synchronization and updating of urban dynamic data, ensuring that the virtual world and the real world are synchronized in real-time.

The operation of data updates is also very convenient. The platform has a built-in graphical interface, click to add layers, select the corresponding data attribute services, fill in the data service parameters, and you can import the latest city data into the city foundation, and support real-time adjustment of its position and height.

3 Intelligent Synergy in Urban Governance and Decision-making

In addition to the full visualization of the city, the platform provides a large number of efficient, flexible, and easy-to-use tools, greatly improving the efficiency of management decision-making, providing strong technical and data support for refined urban management operations and intelligent decision-making.

● Comprehensive Collection of Urban Elements

Supports comprehensive and full-element queries of various urban elements, searching and locating a scene element through the attributes of buildings or specific layers, such as name, location, etc. After clicking to search, the pop-up table on the right will display the corresponding results.

● Land Statistics and Planning

It can provide a detailed view of the attributes of each land plot, including land number, plot size, plot type, etc., providing data support for the rational use of land resources. In addition, the platform also supports the real-time addition of GIS and BIM data, and users can place these data according to their needs to achieve three-dimensional modeling and simulation of the city.

● Spatiotemporal Data Analysis

The platform supports skyline analysis, three-dimensional measurement analysis, three-dimensional section analysis, three-dimensional line of sight analysis, three-dimensional sunlight analysis, three-dimensional collision analysis, and other analysis functions in the scene, facilitating the daily business operations and analysis of the city.

4 Flood Simulation and Deduction

Jakarta is located in a swampy area near the coast, and urban waterlogging occurs frequently during the rainy season, affecting not only the normal order of life but also threatening the safety of residents’ lives and property.

To cope with urban waterlogging and other natural disasters, the platform is based on multi-source data, integrates algorithms, and constructs a comprehensive hydrological and hydrodynamic model based on the underlying surface, urban pipe network, water-related facilities, and river channels. It simulates the impact of corresponding rainfall on the city’s water situation during the flood season in real-time, and combines digital twin technology to simulate and render the production and convergence flow of the city’s underlying surface, the rise and fall of urban water levels, and the range and distribution of urban waterlogging, achieving flood simulation and deduction.

Urban managers in Jakarta can identify key vulnerable areas in the city based on the results of flood simulation and deduction, assess the impact of waterlogging on urban infrastructure and residents’ lives, formulate effective risk management measures, and minimize the losses caused by waterlogging.

5 Application Secondary Development

The DKI Jakarta CIM platform has built-in low-code visual development tools, supporting secondary development, further enhancing the platform’s scalability and reusability.

Users only need to follow the steps of creating scenes, data configuration, function configuration, panel configuration, and scene publishing to quickly build three-dimensional applications; at the same time, they can display offline or real-time business data on the data panel, support dynamic data updates, and quickly publish completed projects for third-party use.

51WORLD’s CIM Model Stands Out in the Digital Wave of Southeast Asia

CIM (City Information Modeling), in simple terms, is a three-dimensional urban spatial model and an organic combination of urban information data based on urban information data, widely used around the world to help solve various urban problems. However, in practice, the existing CIM platform construction model still reflects many shortcomings:

● The construction cost of three-dimensional model data elements is high, and the reuse rate is low;

● It is difficult to unify data, processes, and permissions across technology stacks for products and applications;

● Business data is confidential, system operation and maintenance is complex, and there is a lack of simple, flexible, and secure systems;

● The system requires rendering performance of tens of thousands of square kilometers and a variety of data, and mainstream engines and production lines are difficult to overcome.

As a pioneer in the digital twin industry, 51WORLD has accumulated a large number of mature landing cases and relatively complete construction experience in the past practice and has core capabilities such as massive multi-source heterogeneous data integration, full-element multi-scale rendering of urban large scenes, model lightweight processing, two-dimensional and three-dimensional integration, and spatial analysis and calculation.

Participating in this DKI Jakarta CIM platform construction, 51WORLD brings these advanced technologies and capabilities to the actual R&D of the project, effectively solving the above problems, and by improving the efficiency of urban data asset management, avoiding repeated investment, and improving resource utilization efficiency, making Jakarta achieve smarter management and promoting local digital governance and the development of the digital economy.

Building a city digital foundation with CIM as the core is the cornerstone of achieving digital governance and developing the digital economy. As the carrier of urban data assets, the DKI Jakarta CIM platform integrates a large amount of diverse and complex data generated during the operation of the city, avoiding the traditional management department’s “going their own way, block segmentation, and information islands,” and improving the efficiency of data asset management.

Through digital twin technology, it achieves precise mapping between the digital city and the physical city, providing urban managers with a simple, flexible, and secure operating system, as well as high-quality data support and decision-making reference, assisting in optimizing resource allocation and improving service levels, and promoting urban planning and management towards a smarter and more efficient direction.

In addition, the CIM platform also supports multi-party collaboration and iterative upgrades of three-dimensional scenes, improving the level of intelligent decision-making and refined management of data management.
