Approximately ¼ of the world's urban population lives in favelas: it's the sum of the population of Spain, Italy, France, Germany, UK, Brazil and USA. Learn about a case of a Brazilian favela with approximately 65k inhabitants, without an official address or without adequate housing conditions.

Starting with the favela's point cloud, we created a collaborative digital environment, and the entire project to improve the inhabited environment was done in 3D modeling:
It's BIM in Favela!

The digital construction to manage the infrastructure to make possible a dream of seeing the clean water stream being part of a true sustainable city. All this in a Common Data Environment, in which residents have the power to interact by QRCode in their houses, connected to the cloud.

A Smart City is one that includes the inhabitants in the construction and occupation in a sustainable environment, and all of this is proof of what is possible:
Technology to improve people's lives!s
