Are you interested in the benefits and challenges of digital twins?
Summary of the article titled Creating digital twins to save our cities from 2023 by Soheil Sabri, Stephan Winter and Abbas Rajabifard, published on The University of Melbourne website.
This is a great preparation to our next interviewee in episode 141, Soheil Sabri, where we talk a lot about the digital twin technologies.
Since we are investigating the future of cities, I thought it would be interesting to see what digital twins are capable of. This article presents insights to digital twins, their benefits and current boundaries with the hope of overcoming current urban challenges.
As the most important things, I would like to highlight 3 aspects:

Digital twins can be used to improve urban sustainability, resilience, and efficiency.
Digital twins can be used to monitor and analyse the performance of physical assets, simulate the effects of different scenarios, and improve collaboration between different stakeholders.
Digital twins have the potential to transform the way we manage our cities.
