The Digital Twin model is an exact digital replica of a building project, tracking the evolution of a building from the design phase (for new buildings) and continuing to collect data during operation to streamline the maintenance process and its performance.
Digital Twin is also applicable to existing buildings, with initial building information collected through the 3D laser scanning process.
The Digital Twin model includes, in addition to the 3D geometric representation, information about architectural, structural elements: dimensions quantities and properties, building materials used, quantities and properties, architectural details.
The data we provide in the Digital Twin model benefits customers from reducing the time and cost of making a decision to making the building more energy efficient. Whether it’s rehabilitation, consolidation, renovation or performance monitoring of an object, owning a model resulting from the Scan to BIM process guarantees the authenticity of the building data as well as the accuracy of the decisions made. Moreover, the digital representation of buildings as BIM models brings advantages in the exploitation of the whole built heritage and the city.

Advantages of this service:
– The Digital Twin model helps to improve construction design and planning by creating an accurate digital representation of construction that can be used to simulate behavior and monitor operations. This allows different scenarios to be tested and problems identified before they occur in the real world, which can lead to significant cost and time savings;
– By creating an accurate digital representation of the building, the Digital Twin Model can be used to monitor its performance and condition in real time, allowing problems to be identified and quickly intervened before they become critical;
– By optimising industrial processes in a virtual environment, the Digital Twin Model can help improve building efficiency and sustainability and reduce maintenance and energy costs.
