Thailand Pavilion

World Expo 2020 · Dubai · Digitally Preserved by A360

Overview

The Digital Economy Promotion Agency (depa) led Thailand’s representation at World Expo 2020 in Dubai. Tasked with highlighting Thailand's advances in digital innovation, depa needed a way to preserve the Thailand Pavilion’s immersive virtual experience for long-term access and to showcase at their new EEC headquarters.

Challenge

depa’s key requirement was to archive the pavilion’s digital environment in a format that could be showcased in the future—even after the Expo. The virtual pavilion would be the only long-term source for sharing this milestone with the public, stakeholders, and future visitors.

Solution

A360 deployed its advanced reality capture technology to digitally preserve the entire Thailand Pavilion. This included ultra-HD 360° photography, interactive virtual tours, and layered multimedia elements. The outcome was a permanent virtual replica that encapsulates the spirit of Thailand’s digital economy showcase at Expo 2020, now accessible at depa's EEC facility and online.
