In this era of perpetual advancement and innovation, the term “smart” is frequently misused. Linking smartness to a city should reflect solve multiple problems with single solution. A city, district, or area can only be smart when it contemplates different development axes rather than having just strength. This work an effort make Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh, India, by concentrating actions on five principal axes—Environment, Energy, Mobility, Community, Economy. Practical indicators have been selected well formalised obtain output value that support methodology rank each action its executable manner. Software like ENVI-met (to simulate greening pollution) PVSyst rooftop solar PV) used proposed, detailed discussion for result has presented. The involves creation model based morphological, structural, environmental data, as using SWOT analysis community feedback identify key areas intervention. results demonstrate effectiveness proposed interventions, notable reductions CO2 emissions, improved air quality, significant energy savings through implementation Nature-Based Solutions, PV systems, electric mobility.

Abstract Urban Digital Twin (UDT) technology is increasingly recognised as a promising tool for designing and developing sustainable, resilient urban environments. Nonetheless, the current literature lacks comprehensive understanding of UDTs’ applications in built environment. Therefore, this study addresses identified gap by analysing scholarly industry reports connected to UDT implementations. The results scientometric analysis revealed five key research fields including: (i) monitoring controlling, (ii) smart planning, (iii) environmental management, (iv) decision-making, (v) sustainable cities. Further, analysed 10 on identify practical insights evaluate industry-driven approaches implementing solutions Despite progress, findings indicate absence clear, structured process facilitate consistent implementation, scalability, interoperability technology.
