Digital Twins for Sustainable Development

A digital twin for sustainability is a virtual representation of a physical system or environment, such as a building, city, or natural ecosystem, used to support sustainable development and management practices. Digital Twins for Sustainable Development shows how data from a variety of sources, such as sensors, satellite imagery, and other monitoring tools, can be used for advanced analytics and modelling techniques to simulate the system's behaviour over time. This allows researchers and professionals in computer science to manage complex systems and to promote sustainable development and resource management practices.
