Digital Twin Technology

Digital Twin technology uses real data to simulate wildfires and improve response and prevention.

Digital Twin Technology

Digital Twin technology is a system that uses real, up-to-date data to create simulations of wildfires and their environmental impact.

How does it work?

Developing these images requires:

  • 3D fire spread maps
  • Augmented reality
  • Remote sensing
  • Virtual reality
  • IoT sensors
  • Weather stations
  • Dynamic dashboard
  • Wildfire records

Data fusion and interoperability

This technology relies on fusing all the data collected by the different systems and unifying it into a single universal language:

Simulations

Advantages

  • Greater situational awareness
  • Resource optimisation
  • Proactive risk reduction
  • Training and preparedness

Disadvantages

  • High computing demands
  • Data dependency
  • Integration challenges
  • Upfront costs
  • Limited battery life

Conclusions

With WFDT (Wildfires Digital Twin) technology, the ability to predict wildfire behaviour improves, optimising response strategies and reducing risks.
