Smarter planning starts with smarter data. Outdated mapping, inaccurate measurements, and endless revisions—sound familiar? ❌ VU.CITY's high-accuracy 3D geometry gives built environment professionals the right data from the start so you can: ✅ Speed up feasibility assessments with reliable models ✅ Avoid costly surprises with precise site context ✅ Make confident decisions, faster 🔗 See how it works here: https://lnkd.in/gE8eKxfm #Planning #Architecture #3DModeling #UrbanDevelopment
About us
VU.CITY addresses the fundamental questions: if we build here; what will it look like; who will it affect; and how will it affect them? VU.CITY provides clarity for the built environment. Combining the power of data with the largest, most accurate 3D digital city models, VU.CITY helps us to understand the implications of change in the built environment. VU.CITY is currently live in of London, Manchester, Birmingham, Brighton, Belfast and many more! By visualising proposed buildings in context, we speed up the planning process substantially. Decisions in relation to height, bulk, townscape, heritage and views can therefore be taken around the table, engaging with the design team, the client, consultants and local authority in real time. The data overlays ranging from listed buildings, transport access (PTAL), distances and duration of travel, pollution, pricing, opportunity areas and local frameworks are immediately available and visible within the 3 dimensional environment. Speeding up the decision making process will reduce the time and therefore cost related to the delivery of planning, and ultimately help bring schemes to market quicker, smarter and more affordably.

Looking back at an incredible MIPIM 2025! Last week, Andrew Bullmore, Claire Locke, Anna Mackay, and Gordon Ingram represented VU.CITY at MIPIM, catching up with industry peers, exploring new opportunities, and showcasing how our immersive digital platform brings projects to life. As the tech partner for Opportunity London, we were proud to support investment in the capital and demonstrate how technology is shaping the future of city planning. Some standout moments included: 🔹 Sadiq Khan championing investment in London, reinforcing confidence in the capital’s future. 🔹 The unveiling of the Old Trafford Masterplan; an ambitious vision with huge potential for Manchester. 🔹 A sneak preview of upcoming VU.CITY platform updates, with even more to be revealed at UKREiiF in May! "It was fantastic to see such momentum behind city investment at MIPIM. From major masterplan unveilings to conversations on innovation in the built environment, the appetite for progress is clear. I loved sharing what’s next for VU.CITY and and look forward to unveiling even more of my tech colleagues’ hard work at UKREiiF in May." – Claire Locke, Commercial Director If we didn’t catch you at MIPIM, and you want to connect, feel free to reach out here: https: https://lnkd.in/ecuxsJJz #MIPIM #PropTech #DigitalTwins #CityPlanning #UKREiiF

Great to see VU.CITY featured in the latest edition of NLA’s magazine, the NLQ! The built environment is embracing gaming technology, VR, and real-time collaboration like never before. But for this tech to be truly impactful, it must be accessible. As Andrew Bullmore, Business Development Manager at VU.CITY, highlights, "VU.CITY’s platform can model large cities to 15cm accuracy, and is encouraging both the public and private sector to use technology that helps to de-risk projects at the early stages of development. The platform can be used on a subscription model for big-scale projects but also for unpaid feasibility and speculative work, enabling a fast and transparent collaborative process that has become vital in the built environment." With public and private sectors adopting the same technologies, the future of planning is one of greater collaboration, transparency, and efficiency. ➡️ How do you see gaming tech shaping the future of city planning? Let’s discuss. #DigitalTwins #GamingTech #UrbanPlanning #VUCity #PropTech #NLA

Communicating a vision is one thing—getting stakeholders to truly understand it is another. That’s where 3D flythrough animations make all the difference: 🤝 Boost Engagement 🤝 Enhance Comprehension 🤝 Improve Collaboration Whether you're presenting a bid, marketing a development, or gaining approvals, a 3D flythrough animation can bring your vision to life. Check out the video to see how the Fleet Street Quarter BID did just that. Want to see how it works?
