The Line’s vast linear construction site is already taking shape across the deserts and mountains of northern Saudi Arabia, according to satellite images by SOAR Earth.

Saudi Arabia will not build The Line directly but will use “a lot of artificial intelligence to design through a digital twin backbone.”

Sindalah, which covers an area of approximately 840,000 square meters, is one of a group of islands that will be developed in NEOM, each with its own vision and design.

NEOM announced a USD 175 million investment in Volocopter, a pioneer of Urban Air Mobility, for Saudi mega cities’ future air mobility.
