Utilizing Digital Twining Technologies for Addressing FDOT Priorities

This project has the following objectives: • The primary objective of this project is to establish a comprehensive understanding of digital twin (DT) technology in the context of transportation. This involves providing an overview, conducting a thorough literature review, and exploring practical use cases that create a foundation for further applications. • Proposing a prototype DT framework tailored to the specific needs of the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). This involves addressing technical considerations such as data integration, interoperability, and scalability to lay the groundwork for practical implementation. • Developing comprehensive and practical DT frameworks for selective sub-domain in transportation and transportation systems management and operations (TSMO) applications, such as utilizing the SunTrax testing facility as a real-world testing ground. This involves simulating scenarios, integrating diverse data sources, and showcasing the potential of DT technology in enhancing decision-making, infrastructure planning, and testing various intelligent transportation systems (ITS) applications.
