Laval Renews Its Digital Twin for 3 More Years with Jakarto!

The City of Laval, located north of Montreal, is the third most populous city in Quebec, with a population of 443,893 according to the 2021 census.

Covering an area of 247.23 km² and featuring a road network of 1,800 km, Laval is a dynamic territory that combines urban development with vast natural spaces.

Since 2022, Laval has been using the digital twin provided by Jakarto, an advanced 3D mapping solution that supports infrastructure management and municipal service optimization.

Recognizing the added value of this technology, the city recently renewed its subscription for another three years, reaffirming its commitment to digital transformation.

With over 500 users, Laval is now the leading city in terms of widespread deployment of a digital twin across its departments.

 

🏙️ An Indispensable Tool for Optimized Municipal Management

The digital twin is used daily by multiple municipal departments, each leveraging it for improved operations and informed decision-making:

  • Public Works 🚧: planning and managing road network and underground infrastructure interventions

  • Geomatics 🗺️: integrating mapping data into the city’s GIS systems

  • Legal Affairs (Litigation) ⚖️: analyzing citizen claims using accurate visual evidence

  • Urban Planning 🏗️: monitoring urban development and analyzing territorial changes

  • Public Safety 🚔: assessing access and managing risk areas

  • Horticulture 🌳: managing green spaces and planning urban forestry

  • Specialized Technicians 🔧: enabling quick and efficient interventions on various municipal assets

This diversity of use cases highlights the strategic impact of the digital twin in enhancing municipal service efficiency and modernization.

 

📊 Widespread and Simplified Access for Municipal Employees

With over 400 active users, Laval is democratizing access to geospatial data, enabling every department to work with up-to-date and accurate information. Thanks to Jakarto’s cloud platform, employees can:

  • 📍 Explore the city in 3D and get a detailed view of the territory

  • 📊 Take accurate measurements (distances, heights, volumes)

  • 🔎 Analyze infrastructure evolution and monitor urban transformations

  • 📂 Export geospatial data for integration into their GIS tools

This centralized and scalable approach ensures fast, data-driven decision-making while optimizing municipal resources.

 

🚀 A Commitment to Innovation and Municipal Efficiency

By renewing its subscription for an additional three years, Laval confirms the importance of the digital twin in its strategies for optimization and innovation.
