Digital twin can be a game changer for sustainable urban planning. This technology allows cities not just to create virtual models, but to run simulations of new policies or infrastructure projects and preview their potential impacts before making decisions in the real world. This page highlights the most recent literature and information on how cities, countries and industries worldwide are harnessing digital twin.
