Exploring Edmonton's Living Laboratory w/ RWI Synthetics

​How many people could be trapped in an elevator during a power outage? What happens to vulnerable communities during a wildfire evacuation? How has AC usage truly been impacted by the climate?

​Utilizing RUNWITHIT Synthetics’ innovative visualization and simulation environment, the Regional Advanced Laboratory (REAL) provides regional collectives with the unprecedented ability to forecast and visualize policy, investment, technology, and environmental impacts and model complex scenarios — playing forward time in a living, digital laboratory.

​REAL members from the community elect topics for collective exploration. These learnings are explored quarterly, so all partners can participate in the transfer of knowledge, and outcomes and can carry insights back to their own organizations and communities.

​In this demonstration, the RUNWITHIT team will give an inside look into the process and explore the digital world of the Edmonton Metropolitan Region and its population.

​Location: Energy Square Building in Downtown Edmonton

​All attendees will be greeted in the main lobby and directed to the precise room
