Digital twins are taking center stage, enabling asset-centric organizations to converge their engineering, operational, and information technologies for immersive visualization and analytics visibility. A digital twin is a digital representation of a physical asset, process, or system, as well as the engineering information that allows organizations to understand and model its performance. Digital twins are not a replacement for BIM, but instead next in this evolution from CAD to BIM to an immersive and holistic view of infrastructure assets above and below ground. Using a digital twin means that utilities can build an exact replica of their physical assets in the cloud and manage those assets from design and development through the end of their service lives. The digital twin enables utilities to gain efficiency in multiple ways, including taking advantage of cross functional skills with better collaboration, streamlined operations, improved safety and faster time-to-market.
