Real-time 3D Urban CO₂ & District Heating Visualization with GeoAI, QGIS & CesiumJS

Bring your laptop and curiosity ( real-time 3d co2 visualization workshop ). In this hands-on workshop you’ll build a real-time 3D web app that visualizes building-level CO₂ emissions and district heating demand using open geospatial data and GeoAI. Edit data in QGIS (or remotely via QFieldCloud) and watch updates appear instantly in a CesiumJS viewer.

Why this matters (Geo + climate planning)

City planners and utilities need clear, local visualizations to test district heating scenarios and prioritize retrofit efforts. This workshop shows a reproducible, open-source pipeline you can adapt to your city.

Who should attend

  • Municipal planners and sustainability officers
  • District heating engineers
  • GIS professionals and QGIS users
  • Data scientists interested in GeoAI

What you’ll learn — Practical outcomes

  • Import ALKIS cadastral data and CityGML into QGIS
  • Store and manage data in PostgreSQL/PostGIS
  • Connect a GeoAI model (REST) to predict CO₂ and heating demand
  • Sync QGIS edits to a live CesiumJS 3D viewer
  • Style buildings dynamically by emissions and district heating status
