“With trusted data, great things happen.” This is the new tagline from nima, the former UK BIM Alliance. As a strong advocate for the adoption of digital twins in the built environment, I could not agree more with this statement.

Oggigiorno produciamo un enorme quantità di dati, perché non sfruttarli per migliorare la qualità delle costruzioni? Una corretta gestione dei dati può avere risvolti molto positivi e rendere in futuro i gemelli digitali al centro del ciclo di vita del patrimonio costruito.

Cristina Savian definisce il Digital Twin come una rappresentazione virtuale di un asset o un processo sincronizzata con una specifica frequenza e caratterizzata da uno specifico grado di fedeltà che consente, attraverso l’analisi di diversi flussi di dati, di ottenere informazioni preziose per migliorare il progetto, la consegna, il funzionamento e il mantenimento di un asset costruito.

As the focus shifts to building a better-built environment, information management is being served as one of the key drivers to create a rewarding and productive construction lifecycle. There could not be a more excellent example of the shift of the focus within the BIM community towards the I in BIM than the recent rebranding of the UKBIM Alliance into nima.
