Are you building Digital Twins and want to build on a scalable architecture that is globally enabled.

The iTwin Activate Program is for start-ups seeking venture funding who are pre-seed or early seed-stage. The start-up should be primarily a software-focused business, focused on creating solutions for professionals in the infrastructure…

Some observations on the importance of open source and references to Cesium and SQLite as well as the challenge industry faces in modelling infrastructure, the reality, the current and the future

 

Quite an interesting lifecyle viewpoint of the construction of a digital twin for the Transpennine Route Upgrade which also shows where they delivered value while constructing the digital twin.

Astrid, this was just released (part of our annual review of projects), which made me think this may provide some insights … not quite RIBA stages, but solutions based around the lifecycle of the Twinhttps://go.bentley.com/hubfs/eBook_Digital_Twins_Rail_Asset_Lifecycle_EN FINAL.pdf?hsLang=en

Hi Astrid
Currently the use cases need indexing against your requirements.
However, your specific queries …

Can it influence design : This requires two key features latency and quality … ie  if the consumers of the (lets call it RIBA3 Twin) cannot fulfil their information requirement (not open and low quality) then they will not use…

Hi Astrid,

We work with many users through the engineering lifecycle stages who evolve their Digital Models in the direction of a Digital Twin.  Certainly around the dynamic environment of  a construction site there are many examples and resources.https://aecmag.com/construction/4d-construction-simulation-driving-everton-stadium-build/

Hi @DRossiter87, there is also a gov article linking back to the framework (ps your link seems to have gone stale).
The magnitude of datasets seems to make writing the rules as hard as creating the data and the evolving nature of the Employers Information Requirements creates a dynamic validation scenario.
The requirement to validate data is…

@Ali, there were a couple of very interesting presentations on supplier Digital Maturity (Periodic Table), which probably could be applied to Digital Twin Maturity, although I think for DTHub, it would be interesting to see a maturity based upon a scaling defined from the Gemini Principles would be interesting.
They also have a working…

Very interesting topics, but perhaps may be enhanced with some appendices of Digital Twins that are built to this standard.  For the IMF was any “standard” such as http://www.openoandm.org/isbm/
reviewed ?
If I came to this paper to consider “how” to implement a Digital Twin, I would leave disappointed (and perhaps frustrated) 

Would be interesting to see inclusion on the cost of the data silos and duplication of data (digital waste)Do we know how much digital waste we create in the UK and how this can be prevented with open data sources. indicates this for the US, but most infrastructure projects start with “their” copy of the asset.

I observed some small changes and perhaps some reworking of a single section as well as perhaps an omission

By increasing the openness and availability of shared data between … could this be clarified to “By enabling an openness as defined in the Gemini principles for sharing data between …
