Digital twin is a virtual replica of a physical building or infrastructure that integrates realtime data and simulations to mirror the behavior, performance, and characteristics of the physical asset in a virtual environment. It serves as a bridge between the virtual and physical worlds, enabling a deeper understanding and optimization and facility management of buildings throughout their life cycle.

KEY COMPONENTS OF A DIGITAL TWIN MODEL

1. 3D Building Model: A detailed and accurate representation of the physical building.

2. Sensor Data: Real-time data from sensors embedded in the building, capturing parameters such as temperature, humidity, energy consumption, etc.

3. Internet of Things (IoT): Integration of IoT devices to collect data and enable communication between the digital twin and physical building. www.topbimcompany.com

4. Data Analytics: Advanced analytics algorithms used to analyze and interpret the data collected from the building.

5. Simulation and Visualization: Simulations and visualizations to mimic the behavior and performance of the building.
