The crane radar: Development and deployment of an operational eco-digital twin by K. De Koning

“…Their main strength is informing decision makers in an operational environment by giving detailed up-to-date information about the systems represented in the digital twins, such as industrial production systems or weather forecasts. By running continuous predictions, digital twins evolve synchronous with the real world and related data, making digital twins a particularly powerful tool to study systems that are changing beyond their historic realm. …”
