Important results from the project
Our project objectives were met and after phase 1 we have identified a clear path forward to identify how digitalisation can inform the planning of physical infrastructure and create insights into the built environment and sustainability. Through meetings with experts in both the US and Sweden, new collaborations have been initiated with two leading universities in the US, where we also integrate knowledge about the built environment and urban economics, transport research and sustainability.
Expected long term effects
Two new initiated collaborations between researchers at universities in both Sweden and the US, where we will create insights and tools to better plan infrastructure from the perspective of both social and environmental sustainability. Both junior and senior researchers will build competencies through the collaboration. In the long term, this can spill over into both teaching and new research projects, so that the project has an impact through the networks that are created.
Approach and implementation
We have identified research frontiers and applications through meetings with leading experts in both the US and Sweden. We had physical meetings in the US that resulted in both initiated collaborations and a shift in our focus based on the lessons learned.
