WorldsView Autodesk Tandem is a digital twin platform for the AEC sector
A digital twin technology platform is now available to the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) sector, offering data insights, improved performance and enhanced project returns on investment.
The cloud-based Autodesk Tandem software from WorldsView produces a digital reference model of any building, bridge or road, incorporating Building Information Modeling, or BIM, data that includes design, construction and service data. The reference model becomes a dashboard for the project and a database of its assets, making it possible to track, manage and maintain the assets over time. The model is designed to be responsive, automatically updating as data is supplied. On project completion, the data-rich digital replica is handed over to the project owner, accelerating operational readiness.
Tandem offers simulation and predictive modelling capabilities, based on real-world conditions of the building and its environment, helping to reduce risks and cut project costs. The software’s facility templates enable project teams to specify the owner’s data requirements upfront, ensuring data delivery is standardised and consistent. It also enables project teams to collaborate, and view progress and asset performance, historically or currently. This seamless collaboration functionality enables efficiency and productivity.
“Digital twin technology is already utilised in manufacturing as well as the oil and gas industry, where it has demonstrated that it can improve the management of production and drive efficiency. The introduction of Autodesk Tandem, designed specifically for the AEC sector, will bring a host of benefits into the make-build space,” says WorldsView infrastructure segment leader Chelsey Turner.
