2nd EAGE/SEG Workshop on Geophysical Aspects of Smart Cities
6 — 8 December 2022, Yasumoto International Academic Park (YIA), The Chinese University of Hong Kong
Cities around the world, and especially in Asia, strive to transform urban work and life, utilizing the ongoing digital revolution. Challenges to embrace digital transformation, however, are significant. With limited land, innovations are required continuously to improve the urban living environment for a safer, more sustainable, and more liveable condition. The limited space also challenges the urban transportation designers to provide more efficient, more reliable, and enhanced solutions. In both domains, geophysics has the ability to provide essential knowledge at the planning stage, real-time performance monitoring, and life cycle management. Bridging the gap between geophysics, civil engineering, and digital informatics provides the framework to guide project owners and local authorities to develop specific strategies for building a Smart City/ Smart Nation.
The goal of this workshop is to influence the smart city practice in the highly developed cities in Asia and around the world. After a first successful edition in Singapore in 2019, we are now taking the event to Hong Kong. The main aim of the workshop is to demonstrate and discuss lessons learned and progress in geophysical techniques in smart city applications and methods, with an emphasis on interdisciplinary efforts with civil engineering and digital technologies. Hardware sensor development, remote sensing application, data analytics, and social and environmental impacts of technologies will be covered.
