Low-cost digital twins? Today it’s possible
Thanks to new free 3D data, creating a realistic digital twin of territories, buildings, and infrastructure is no longer a project reserved for the few, with high budgets and long lead times.
Today it is possible to:
- start from open and free 3D datasets (sources below);
- integrate them with existing geospatial and informational data;
- obtain an accurate, up-to-date, and cost-effective digital representation.
The result?
- faster simulations;
- better analysis and decisions;
- new opportunities for urban planning, monitoring, smart cities, and asset management.
The digital twin is no longer just a futuristic concept: it is an accessible tool, ready to be used even in local-scale projects or those with limited budgets.
True innovation today lies not only in data, but in how we make it useful.
