Summary
This chapter demonstrated how digital twins are the lifeblood of smart buildings by unlocking the benefits of IoT and smart building applications. They create long-term value by solving big problems. They are used to improve efficiencies, detect problems, optimize processes, and innovate for the future. Smart building digital twins will also benefit smart cities and urban planners, allowing them to predict what might happen if a building is constructed in a certain manner.
In the next chapter, we’ll begin to explore methodologies for pulling together your smart building project by looking at how to define the project requirements.
