CIHT Qatar Group organises technical, membership and social events to maintain and enrich the working knowledge of highways and transportation professionals in Qatar. All interested CIHT members and non-members are invited to attend.
Two-thirds of global population will live in cities by 2050, as estimated by the UN. Today, around 55% of the world's population is thought to be living in an urban area or city, with that figure set to rise to 68% shortly. After a decade of experimentation, Smart Cities are now entering a new phase. Although they are only one part of the full tool kit for making a city great, digital solutions seem to be the most powerful and cost-effective additions to that tool kit in many years.
This presentation illustrates some of PTV’s main contributions in current applications that enable cities to improve quality-of-life indicators, and offers the opportunity for exchanging ideas and thoughts on what is currently being done in the Region and beyond.
Transport Planning and Engineering Professionals at all levels in Qatar. The event may also be of interest to those in the wider planning, design and engineering sectors.
