Creating Cities of the Future with Digital Twin Technology
Figure 4: Renewable Energy Asset Identifiers, Enlarged View
Here, the example is an urban six block
setting of an actual neighborhood in the city
of Los Angeles. It is envisioned that the
digital twin mapping function may be
changed to feature the geographic
coordinates of any area of interest. At the
bottom of the screen is a toolbar where the
drag and drop enabled objects reside; solar
panels, solar arrays and batteries. Figure 4
demonstrates how the details of each digital
twin representation can be displayed by a
cursor rollover.
These digital twin objects are drag and drop
enabled so the user can place them, as
needed, on the map as shown in Figure 5.
