Programme Highlights

A digital twin is a digital model representing physical objects, products, or systems, which is indistinguishable for practical purposes such as simulations, integration, and monitoring. The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology Digital Twin project has developed an integrated platform to further improve their facility management capability. The Digital Twin platform will collect data from building information modelling (BIM), geographic information system (GIS), and various internet of things (IoT) devices and systems and therefore allow users to perform simulation and analysis of engineering projects within HKUST premises, as well as enhancing O&M practices. 

This seminar will include an introduction to the development and application of Digital Twin for the HKUST Campus, where participants can gain insights on the advantages of using digital twin and its integration.
