Digital Twinning as an Approach to Promoting Real Estate Projects: Residential Unit at the Lake West, Sheikh Zayed City, Cairo, Egypt

Abstract

The digital twin concept, as well as Cyber-physical systems (CPS) and internet of things (IOT)-based techniques, are becoming increasingly relevant themes in future industry 4.0 architecture. They have a high dynamic potential in intelligent production planning and control, as well as part traceability and documentation. According to research, Digital Twins (DTs) technology and artificial intelligence technology (AI) offer considerable advantages in the classification of transportation infrastructure and the management of transportation spatial information networks. The intelligent development of transportation infrastructure is analysed and predicted in functional design, intelligent development, and effective integration with new media, with the goal of providing a reference for future intelligent development and construction of transportation infrastructure in smart cities. This research focuses on the impact of digital twin technology on architecture and real estate professions. The purpose is to assess how much understanding real estate developers have about digital twin technologies, and to analyse the various tools and functions they bring to the profession. The paper first introduces the notion of digital twin technology and how it first arose, and the significance of it in architecture. Afterwards, the paper offers an analysis of models created with digital twin technologies. Finally, it presents a case study of the Lake West project in which the digital Twin model has been implemented. The paper concludes that a number of professions, including architecture and real estate, will be impacted by the digital twin, which has come into being as one of the most important emerging technologies. This technology is essential for enhancing the functionality of numerous systems.
