Stad op het Spel
Stad op het Spel lets decision-makers in urban development experience the impact of their choices and collaboration first-hand. In this interactive experience, they engage in conversation with people from a future city scenario. These conversations reveal what abstract policy dilemmas and design choices actually mean for everyday life. Playing the game opens up space for empathy, reflection and better conversations. In doing so, it contributes - in an accessible and thought-provoking way - to more human-centred policy, more effective ways of working, and cross-disciplinary thinking about the city of tomorrow. In short: a conversation starter that opens up new perspectives.

Stad in Beeld
Stad in Beeld – A participatory digital twin for future-proof urban development In this project, Webbio B.V. is investigating the feasibility of a participatory digital twin, specifically for the municipality of Nijmegen. The focus is on combining spatial data, policy information and interactive visualisation via webXR. The aim of the participatory digital twin is to make policy choices visually clear and to give residents an accessible way to get involved. In this phase, Webbio is working with the municipality of Nijmegen and two specialised technology partners to build a working proof of concept focused on one specific neighbourhood. This will validate technical feasibility, user interaction, data connections and policy integration.
SimCityScope
SimCityScope: virtual experience and coordination of urban disruption and construction phasing SimCityScope is an interactive process, including a tool, that lets residents, business owners and policymakers experience building projects and other neighbourhood changes virtually before they happen. Through VR, AR or a screen, you see not just the end result but also the planning, temporary closures and possible disruption. This creates more understanding, engagement and better collaboration before construction begins. The project helps municipalities and other parties make better decisions on urban development together with residents.
Urban Prototype Station
Urban Prototype Station: Through Our Eyes Urban Prototype Station: Through Our Eyes is a mixed reality platform that reduces the negative effects of urban development by combining 3D city models, storytelling through volumetric video of local residents, and open data. The platform visualises the impact of construction projects at 3 functional scale levels: • bird's-eye view (1:500) for tabletop project discussions; • neighbourhood scale (1:50) for Madurodam-style area visualisation; • street level (1:1) for real-size viewing in the actual environment. It brings personal stories, such as residents' experiences of nuisance, directly into the design process through lifelike holograms. The platform provides a communication channel between decision-makers and residents, allowing plans to be visualised, residents to give direct feedback, and alternative implementation scenarios to be simulated in order to minimise nuisance.
Ervaren, uitleggen, beslissen
Experience, explain, decide: an IX stakeholder participation framework Good intentions sometimes get lost in translation, and positive ideas can end up framed negatively. The flexible IX stakeholder participation framework reinvents communication. This framework can serve as an AR model with projections that bring concepts to life, or as a 3D visualisation on a traditional screen in a community centre. It cuts through miscommunication, transforms the way ideas are shared, connects with others, and delivers real impact.
TransitieTwin3D
Dutch cities are facing an unprecedented pile-up of spatial challenges: housing construction, grid reinforcement, heat network installation, greening and climate adaptation. These challenges collide at street level, and designs and communication are often developed in isolation from one another. The result is fragmentation, delays and confusion among residents. TransitieTwin3D offers an integrated IX solution: a virtual, interactive environment where policymakers, contractors and residents can get to grips with spatial projects, influence them and align them more effectively. The application runs on the web-GIS platform GeoApps, enhanced with a real-time 3D engine and live BIM integration via Innobrix. Users experience the impact of projects via a 65” TouchTable or online, without needing VR headsets or specialist hardware.
HoloCollab
HoloCollab is a concept for a mixed reality co-planning tool that speeds up and improves integrated urban planning. Instead of stacks of separate drawings and static 2D maps, everyone involved gets one shared 'holographic' project environment. Wearing a mixed reality headset, policymakers, designers and contractors view a virtual 3D model of the project area right in the middle of the meeting table. Together, they explore different design options, add spatial notes and visualise changes. This shared, interactive view prevents miscommunication and speeds up decision-making in urban projects.
