Digital twins applications: Linking earth observation, models, and decision-making for multifunctional landscapes
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/181401
Abstract
Digital twins (DTs) are virtual replicas of physical systems that stay synchronized with real-world. In agriculture, water, and environmental management, DTs range from hybrid, periodically synchronized bio-physical models used for planning and forecasting, to full, continuously updated virtual systems supporting real-time operational decisions. This document presents empirical…
