Speaker: Marcus Kim, Technical Solutions Executive at Autodesk

Description:

Digital Twin is a trending topic in the AEC industry today. Like BIM during the early days, digital twin is a revolutionary idea that is often spoken to but not entirely understood. At its simplest, the digital twin represents a collection of digital data that represents for the AEC industry anything from a general physical object or engineering component to an entire building. However, some mistake a digital twin as nothing more than three-dimensional digital model. What people fail to understand is the value a digital twin offers when deliberately created for a targeted use.
