The 3D simulation of a Shockwave in a digital city model to predict the impact of an explosion in urban areas.
Simulation of explosion in the center of Frankfurt – Source: VirtualCitySystems
These simulations to identify sensitive urban areas where a bomb of 2nd forgotten war, the explosion of a gas pipeline, or a criminal explosive device would cause significant damage on the people and the surrounding buildings.
The goal is also to prepare and test if the evacuation of the site, its security and coordination of the first aid.
Prerequisites: city 3D model (at least LoD1), data of construction of buildings and location of sensitive places
