“CIM+” Applications Drive Intelligent Urban Governance

SuperMap has constructed a CIM platform leveraging key technologies such as 3D GIS, cloud-native GIS, cross-platform GIS, spatio-temporal data governance, and distributed storage and computing.

This platform provides a "unified data foundation" and "unified digital base" for new urban infrastructure development. It applies CIM to multi-scenarios to address needs in urban planning, construction, and governance, which assists in safer, more orderly, smarter, and more efficient urban operations. 

CIM+ OMS: Enhancing Urban Governance Efficiency

The CIM+OMS (Operations-Management-Service) application focuses on achieving comprehensive oversight, proactive management, and preventive governance in urban operations.

Under the framework of "unified visualization and collaborative governance across the network," it integrates 3D GIS, IoT, big data, and AI technologies to aggregate and correlate operational data for above-ground, ground-level, and underground urban assets. This consolidates urban management resources and strengthens the data ecosystem for city operations. 

The platform extends smart city management services to scenarios like urban lighting, waste management, gas supervision, digital city administration, and integrated law enforcement. By establishing intelligent prediction models, it analyzes and warns about major urban management incidents, optimizes resource allocation, so as to provide data-driven decision support for enhanced precision and efficiency in urban operations. 

1. Above-Ground Monitoring

The platform supports real-time monitoring of buildings, plazas, bridges, etc. For bridges, it can track structural displacement, settlement, tilt, acceleration, vibration amplitude/frequency, cable tension, temperature/humidity, dynamic balance, and human comfort. This enables systematic analysis and assessment of bridges' structural health and extend service life. 

2. Ground-Level Monitoring

The platform can monitor manholes, lighting systems, road and traffic conditions, etc. AI-powered drones can autonomously identify road damages, and generate maintenance and risk detection tasks accordingly.

3. Underground Monitoring

The monitoring of gas, drainage, water supply, heating, utility tunnels and rail transit is supported on the platform. It integrates IoT sensors for gas, drainage, water supply, heating to form urban operation status perception.

Refering to the flow of daily management orders and the flow of result information, the platform categorizes risk levels based on asset criticality, threat severity, and impact scope, ensuring graded supervision of safety risks. 

CIM+ Simulation: Smarter Analysis and Decision-Making

Leveraging CIM's multi-source data fusion capabilities and structural/fluid simulation technologies, the platform enables dynamic simulations of intricate models in large-scale scenarios. It visualizes the internal states of urban infrastructure to detect anomalies, predict risks, and optimize asset distribution and configuration for managing personnel.

By simulating facility performance under different layouts, it helps select optimal solutions, make maintenance plans, and arrange maintenance resources accordingly to ensure normal operation of infrastructure and extend asset lifespans. 

1. Structural Simulation

By displacing model nodes according to deformation values, the platform visualizes the deformation process of 3D models. It supports calculations of object deformation and even enables precise analysis of stress distribution across geometric structures, thereby delivering more accurate and intuitive assessments of facility conditions. 

2. Fluid Simulation

The platform stimulates and dynamically visualizes the water flow in real-world environments. It also supports integrated display of impact force fields exerted by fluids on infrastructure. This will help make more informed decision-making in urban flood control, drainage management, and hydraulic system monitoring and optimization.

CIM+ Urban Health Assessment: More comprehensive urban governance

Urban health assessments play a vital role in coordinating urban planning, construction, and management, addressing "urban diseases," improving infrastructure, and enhancing livability. 

Built on CIM's digital foundation, the platform employs cloud-native solutions, big data GIS, and knowledge graphs to diagnose urban digital status.

Through the establishment of a spatio-temporal smart detection system, a digital urban risk prevention system and comprehensive analysis approach for health assessment, the platform assesses ecological livability, safety resilience, transportation efficiency, urban aesthetics, and innovation vitality. It pinpoints issues that hinder quality of life and urban high-quality development to contribute to the healthy development of city organism.

Case Study

Xingtai, Hebei: Multi-Scenario "One-Network Governance"

The city of Xingtai is located in Hebei province. Xingtai's Urban Operations Management Service Platform integrates diverse data resources and has established 10 subsystems, including business guidance, command coordination, operational monitoring, and public services.

It has developed application scenarios such as smart flood control and public opinion monitoring, while consolidating industry-specific solutions like smart park management, smart sanitation, smart construction waste management, smart heating, and smart parking.

By addressing urban management challenges and pain points, the platform demonstrates strong exemplary value and practicality and enhances the efficiency and quality of urban management and services.

The CIM platform reinvigorates urban governance through multi-source data fusion, space-sharing services, spatial analytics, and intelligent simulations. It extends management from surface to subsurface, 2D to 3D, analysis to simulation, enabling precise "diagnosis" of urban pain points and targeted solutions. 

As IoT and AI technologies evolve and integrate with each other, SuperMap will continue to build smart, resilient new urban infrastructure, safeguarding sustainable development and public well-being.
