Virtual City Systems, CADFEM and Creative Climate Cities are project partners for the qualification program.
TwinBy: The qualification program for this comes from Grafing
18 Bavarian municipalities and intermunicipal associations are developing “digital twins” for data-based optimization of decision-making. The Bayerische Staatsministerium für Digitales is supporting these municipalities . The sponsors have chosen the joint offer of Virtual City Systems, CADFEM and Creative Climate Cities for the qualification program of the local employees.
Funding by the Digital Ministry
The participating municipalities will receive support from selected service providers in developing the software until April 2024. The Digital Ministry is funding the projects with up to 50,000 euros for individual municipalities and up to 75,000 euros for intermunicipal projects. This will support individual consulting, coaching and technical support services for setting up an individual digital twin in each municipality. In addition, there will be a special qualification program for employees. The municipalities will thus be able to continuously expand their planning model themselves after the program and use their know-how to plan and simulate additional developments.

Virtual City Systems, CADFEM and Creative Climate Cities as Qualification Partners
The qualification of the employees involved in the project plays a key role in the successful planning and implementation of a “digital twin”. For this purpose, the decision was made in favor of the joint offer from Virtual City Systems (experts in 3D city models, 3D geoinformation and digital twins of cities), CADFEM (experts in simulation technology and operators of an intuitive eLearning platform) and Creative Climate Cities (experts in digital urban development). The qualification concept is composed of two learning phases in which the necessary specialist knowledge can be acquired. Phase 1 in the spring will provide a general overview, while Phase 2 in the fall will focus on technical basics and competencies as well as the implementation of a use case. The qualification is offered as a blended learning concept, meaning the interactive eLearning courses, which are specially produced in the CADFEM studios in Grafing-Schammach, are combined with consultation hours and live workshops in hybrid format – either on-site at CADFEM or online.
