It not only facilitated the evolution of Chinese society but also showcases ancient China's prowess in hydraulic engineering and waterway management. As a cultural artery, it significantly impacts literature, art, and language, reflecting centuries of cultural integration. Modern technologies such as intelligent construction and digital navigation ensure its operational integrity. Moreover, digital tools like panoramic technology and 3D modeling enable virtual tours, enhancing public understanding and preservation efforts. The canal's application of technology also advances several Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Goal 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure) is supported by improving reliability and efficiency through digital innovations. Goal 4 (Quality Education) benefits from interactive learning experiences created by these technologies. Lastly, Goal 15 (Life on Land) is addressed by smart management systems that monitor and protect the canal's ecosystem, promoting sustainability and ecological protection. These efforts underscore the Grand Canal's continuing importance in sustainable development and cultural heritage. Date Submitted Date of submission of the resource.
