Smart City Digital Twin
SensUrban Digital Twin — Strategic Asset of Smart City
We believe that smart cities are not just about technology, but about improving the quality of life for everyone. SensUrban's platform assists in tackling challenges like urban sprawl, energy efficiency, and infrastructure planning, thereby contributing to sustainability goals. By enabling a deeper understanding of city dynamics, we facilitate informed decision-making that leads to economic growth, environmental sustainability, and improved living standards. That is what makes the digital twin a strategic asset for any smart city.
Join us in making our cities not only more intelligent, but also more livable, enjoyable, and sustainable. Experience the future of urban living with SensUrban.
The Platform
The SensUrban based Digital Twin reflects real life, real-time events in 3D Virtual Reality
SensUrban provides tools, ecosystem and environment for stakeholders to deploy various applications and data visualizations on 3D digital twins.
Advanced data visualization with countless layers of information for Smart City and Smart Buildings
The SensUrban platform enables immersive visualization of different layers of information on an intuitive 3D building/city model and browser-based user interface, such as:
- HVAC and other building automation data
- Energy consumption, energy efficiency and carbon footprint of building(s)
- Water consumption, electricity consumption
- Operation and energy efficiency of local energy production
- IoT sensor data, e.g. room air condition and quality, building moisture, room occupancy and use
- Analyzed building risks, e.g. mold risk index, areas at risk of capillary moisture, indoor air quality index
- User-generated data, e.g. tenant feedback, workforce management
- Traffic weather, traffic flow and parking lot data
- Water network, sewage network, district heating network
- Outdoor air quality in cities, pollution level and local weather
SensUrban Digital Twin 3D models are tailored to customer needs.

Featured Customer
FeelPlace — Building's IoT Data Visualization
IoT data visualization in a 3D model
FeelPlace IoT Solutions for buildings consist of different types of IoT devices, cloud-based data storage and data analysis systems. The FeelPlace IoT data as well as local weather information are integrated (using APIs) into the 3D model of the building by SensUrban software, running in the client web browser (Chrome/Edge). The end result is a browser-based, easy-to-use, highly visual smart building user interface for IoT data visualization, co-branded by FeelPlace as FeelPlace3D.

Frequently asked questions
What is SensUrban?
SensUrban is a 3D digital twin framework for smart cities and smart buildings, built by MeshWorks Wireless Oy — a Finnish IoT company founded in 2007 and headquartered in Tampere. It provides the tools, ecosystem and environment for stakeholders to deploy applications and data visualizations on 3D digital twins that reflect real-life, real-time events.
Does SensUrban require software to be installed?
No. The SensUrban digital twin runs in a standard web browser (Chrome/Edge) on the client side. There is no separate client software, plugin or app to install and maintain.
What kinds of data can be visualized on the digital twin?
Building automation and HVAC data, energy consumption, energy efficiency and carbon footprint, water and electricity consumption, local energy production, IoT sensor data such as air quality, building moisture and room occupancy, analyzed building risks such as mold risk index and capillary moisture areas, user-generated data such as tenant feedback and workforce management, traffic weather, traffic flow and parking lot data, water, sewage and district heating networks, and outdoor air quality, pollution levels and local weather.
Do we need to buy new sensors to get started?
No. SensUrban is data-source neutral and visualizes data from the sensors and systems you already operate, complemented with open data such as weather services. Any system that can share its data over an API can become a layer on the digital twin.
How is the 3D model of our city or building created?
SensUrban digital twin 3D models are tailored to customer needs. A model can cover a single building, a district or a wider city area.
Which applications does SensUrban support?
Seven application areas are documented on this site: environment, intelligent traffic, people flow, energy efficiency, space usage, air quality and surveillance — all running on the same 3D digital twin.
