“…Indeed, the larger framework of this exploration is ongoing research investigating the development of a Territorial Digital Twin (TDT)-of which forest digital twins would be essential components-as a multiscale 3D digital copy of fragile landscapes to increase their resilience [36]. Specifically, even if the modelling of the natural environment has only recently started to be developed in urban digital twins (e.g., the GreenTwins project for Helsinki and Tallinn [37]), it seems crucial to address the rising importance of urban vegetation for the well-being of citizens.…”

Urban forests, parks, and gardens are fundamental components of urban sustainability, resilience, and regenerative dynamics. Designers, architects, and landscape architects could smartly manage these dynamic ecosystems if efficiently provided with design-oriented digital tools, technologies, and techniques. However, practitioners lack knowledge and standardized procedures for their uses. The rise of low-cost sensors to generate 3D data (e.g., point clouds) in forestry can also effectively support monitoring, analysis, and visualization purposes for greenery in urban contexts. Adopting an interdisciplinary approach—involving the fields of forestry, geomatics, and computer science—this contribution addresses these issues and proposes a low-cost workflow for 3D virtual reconstructions of urban forests to support information management activities and thus landscape architecture applications. By connecting a wide range of methods (i.e., spherical photogrammetry, point cloud modeling), tools (i.e., 360° camera, tablet with lidar sensor), and software (i.e., Agisoft Metashape, CloudCompare, Autodesk AutoCAD), the proposed workflow is defined and tested in the development of dynamic virtual representations for a plot of the Mesiano University park in Trento (Italy). Finally, comparing acquisition, processing, and elaboration methodologies and their results, the possibility of developing digital twins of urban forests is envisioned.

“…However, RYTJ does not recognise the use of digital urban data that are produced by non-public actors. Nevertheless, there is ongoing research on digital twins that does recognise civil engagement in data production [35]. The definition of digital planning material and immaterial rights will probably have to be specified later in RYTJ from the perspective of third parties or commercial use.…”

“…However, the proposed Building Act in Finland implies the use of 3D planning, and CIM-and BIM-based building requirements without explicit reference to the digital empowerment of civil society. Recently, some of the experiments on digital twins have disclosed that without the adoption of a flat ontology perspective, digital empowerment deepens only the public participation of activists but not self-organisation [35].…”

Due to global eco-social and technological challenges, a new strategy of planning adopted as the Land Use and Building Act in Finland (2000) will be renewed after 23 years of implementation. Will the forthcoming law recognise the complex relationships and consequences of self-organised processes, the digital empowerment of citizens, and the eco-social content of planning and development? This article examines and discusses the renewal of the Finnish Land Use and Building Act and the forthcoming planning system from an ontological perspective. Methodologically it is based on an assessment of the draft of and comments on the new Act, as well as on a comparative analysis of two case studies that illustrate the potential consequences of the renewal in the Finnish context. The results reveal that the planning system will become more complex. Despite the adoption of a new digital methodology, the Act ignores civil society’s self-organisation and digital empowerment; also, the definition of the eco-social substance is vague. However, the Finnish reform serves as an example of the difficulties that planning systems encounter in the current context of complex problems concerning sustainability transitions all over the world.
