Abstract

The article focuses on urban scale digital twins and their role in data-driven urban planning, critically examining the concept of digital universalism. It highlights specific cases such as the "Virtual Zurich" project, which utilizes open government 3D spatial data to visualize environmental and construction information, and discusses the limited effectiveness of AI in traffic light control compared to flexible local adaptations. The article also addresses concerns about democracy and sovereignty, noting that most urban scale digital twins are developed by private companies or institutions. Corrections to references and phrasing clarify these points and emphasize the socio-political implications of digital twin technologies in smart city contexts. [Extracted from the article]
