The Digital City project aims to build at a providing digital twin city environment by handling 3-D urban environment dataset and visualization environment with local digital city activities heading for constructing a hot standby environment. The progress is demonstrated by a series of events held in in Susono city, Shizuoka, and Chiba city, Chiba at this time (Jan., 2021).
