It is a pleasure to announce that Trondheim City Planning Office is the first customer to adopt Weave Maps within the field of urban planning. After a period of testing, the Trondheim City Planning Office recently decided to purchase the solution. The intention is for Weave Maps to serve as a tool for making better and more informed decisions related to the granting of building projects.

Over the past year, we have taken our product, Weave Maps, several steps further. The concept is simple: Visualize a project by placing objects (e.g., a planned new building) in a photorealistic map, and experience this in 3D from any perspective. Although we currently have primarily worked with emergency services, we have always thought that the product could also be valuable for city planning offices and politicians who need to approve new projects but only have flashy images with limited sense of space to rely on.

Therefore, we find it particularly exciting that Trondheim municipality is now the first city planning office in the country, as far as we know, to use this type of tool when making their assessments about which projects should be approved and which should be sent back to the drawing board. Trondheim City Planning Office is also taking it one step further by making the solution available to both politicians at the City Hall and the residents of the city.

It is motivating to be able to contribute to good urban development. We will therefore do our part to advance the product in a way that benefits city planning offices, and we are excited to follow how it is being used, and not least, learn more about how we can make it even better.

Do you represent a city planning office and are curious if such a solution could create value for you? Get in touch, and we would be happy to have a closer conversation to see if it is a match.
