Create smart, digital models and apps using your project data to transform the built asset lifecycle. Digital Twin technology will enhance workflows and increase visibility, improving operational efficiency and informing future design and construction decisions.
What is a Digital Twin?
A Digital Twin is an environment of linked data and models that reproduce an accurate, virtual representation of real-world entities and processes. Cutting-edge technology allows for the synchronization of the virtual data environment with real-world conditions in order to facilitate holistic understanding, optimal decision-making, and effective action throughout the lifecycle of those entities.
AECO Digital Twin Foundation
An AECO Digital Twin Foundation is an accurate, standardized, sustainable virtual model of the built environment of the project at hand. The AECO Digital Twin Foundation forms the essential core for all predictive, operational, and historical analyses of the actual project environment. Without the well-maintained and standardized AECO Digital Twin Foundation, it is impossible to obtain consistent analytic, operational, and predictive data across the project lifecycle.
Key elements of an AECO industry digital twin foundation:
Geospatial Conditions
Civil Infrastructure Conditions
Built Environment Conditions
Why is an AECO digital twin foundation required?
A stable, consistent, and sustainable virtual model of the project environment is required for a successful AEC Industry Digital Twin project. At Team D3, we call this virtual model the Digital Twin Foundation Platform. Without this key component, the overall digital twin is simply unable to function in a predictable way that provides the desired service to the client.
