UPV Develops Digital Twin to Predict Floods with Real-Time Rainfall Data

Researchers at the Polytechnic University of Valencia have created a digital twin to anticipate flooding based on real-time rainfall data

The digital twin is a virtual replica of a catchment area that simulates the behavior of water under various conditions, allowing for predictions of potential flooding. The system uses real-time rainfall data to update the simulation, enabling authorities to take proactive measures to prevent flooding. The technology has the potential to save lives and reduce damage to infrastructure.
