New York, NY using digital twin technology to improve emergency response times

En cours

The NYC Fire Department is experimenting with digital twin technology in order to speed up emergency responses in traffic-congested areas. The yearlong project will create a digital twin of an FDNY district in West Harlem, and will allow researchers to assess why emergency response delays happen and simulate potential solutions before taking them onto actual streets. Ultimately the project hopes to provide real-time routing guidance to FDNY vehicles responding to medical emergencies.
