3D Award for Territory Management, "Managing regions has become a major challenge facing modern societies and new European policies aim to introduce sustainable development to provide better quality of life and to preserve the environment. Environmental Quality in Construction (through HQE), has now been broadened in France to include town planning (HQE2R), meeting targets for consideration of environmental aspects in town planning projects at various regional levels. Against this background 3D geospatial technology has become essential in managing and optimising environmental quality, preventing risks, improving public consultation and raising citizens’ awareness of these economic and environmental challenges.
The 3D Award for Territory Management will recognise those regional bodies and public authorities that have been best able to unlock the potential offered by 3D town / city and regional modelling in order to provide sustainable management."
