Abstract

The United Nations' Global Goal 11 of Sustainable Cities and Communities contributes to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The subsurface has an important but as yet largely under-appreciated role to play in achieving this goal. This will require integrated planning incorporating the subsurface meaningfully, and will depend on better accessibility to and communication of subsurface geoscience knowledge and data, in ways relevant to planning. The EU-funded COST Action Sub-Urban (TU1206) has focussed on this challenge by developing a European network involving 29 countries to improve understanding and use of ground beneath our cities. Key objectives included identification and dissemination of good practice in subsurface data and knowledge and greater interaction between subsurface experts, urban decision-makers, practitioners and researchers. City-scale subsurface model exemplars have been encouraged to inspire a lighthouse-follower approach nationally and internationally. Sub-Urban's state-of the-art City and expert reviews identify good practice and methodologies in: Subsurface information and planning ; Data acquisition and management ; 3D/4D urban subsurface modelling and visualization ; Groundwater and geothermal monitoring and modelling ; Geotechnical modelling and hazards ; (Sub)surface geochemistry ; and Cultural heritage. These findings, workflows and decision-support tools are highlighted in an online Toolbox (http://sub-urban, squarespace.com/) GeoCIM (Geo-Ciry Information Modelling) has been developed for City Quarter to Conurbation scales, combining subsurface and above-ground 3D and 4D models to support: holistic urban planning ; addressing subsurface congestion identification of subsurface opportunities, and cost saving by reducing uncertainty in ground conditions. Early-stage consideration of the subsurface in planning is also considered essential, and should be acknowledged at policy level

Abstract

This report is the result of COST Action TU1206 Working Group 2, Work package 2.3, and focusses on 3D urban subsurface modelling and visualisation. The major aims of this report are: 1) evaluating current techniques and identify good practices / best efforts in 3D geological modelling and visualisation of the urban subsurface, based on case studies, and 2) co-developing (subsurface specialists & model users) requirements for optimal use of 3D geological modelling information in specific planning and policy contexts. Three major topics have been considered: • Constructing and maintaining 3D urban geological models • Modelling man-made ground • Visualising 3D urban subsurface model results To improve the use of subsurface modelling in urban planning in the future, the following challenges have been identified: • The complexity of the urban subsurface, including man-made ground, combined with the level of detail of information asked for in many urban planning issues demand that geologists look beyond their traditional data sources. • Combined 3D property modelling of the small-scale heterogeneity of man-made deposits and natural deposits requires new modelling approaches. • Management of the shallow urban subsurface requires model tools that can be frequently updated to reflect the frequently changing properties and functions of the urban subsurface. • There is a need for dynamic (4D) urban subsurface models that can be used for real-time monitoring and incorporation of time-series data on subsurface properties. • It would be cost-effective to have an actively maintained, scalable geological framework model of a city available that forms a common basis for the various kinds of dedicated models of parts of the city. • To give subsurface information a firm position in urban planning and management, geological information will have to be presented in the right format, and at the right time. It is absolutely necessary to include the subsurface infrastructure and to combine
