Virtual Reality and Digital Twin for Public Services, Fingal County, Ireland

Fingal County Council, in partnership with RealSim, has transformed public service delivery through innovative Digital Twin and VR technology. RealSim developed Ireland’s first publicly accessible 3D web viewer for a local authority and advanced it into a VR 3D Planning Consultations platform. This platform allows citizens to explore proposed developments, like Balbriggan Harbour improvements, using immersive 3D models via VR headsets, simplifying complex urban planning and fostering public engagement.

The initiative demonstrates how RealSim’s technology enhances transparency and participation in civic planning. Additionally, Fingal’s VR for Libraries program further showcases VR’s potential for education and public benefit, emphasizing accessibility and innovation in community services.
