Enabling the Roads Metaverse: Visualisation & Human Interaction

道路利益相关者越来越意识到，在整个道路生命周期中采用基于DigitalTwin的信息和资产管理可以获得巨大的潜在价值。然而，过去使用资产信息模型的经验表明，即使是最丰富的资产模型也没有被利益相关者员工充分利用。对于技术能力和熟悉程度低于平均水平的员工来说尤其如此。it供应商急于把责任归咎于员工，并建议解决这个问题的唯一办法是补充技术教育。实际上，问题在于该领域当前的人类数据交互方式与通用平台（Microsoft Metaverse）和社交媒体公司（Meta）之间的差距。因此，该项目的目标是为数据可视化环境通信的数字孪生导出一个框架。其目的是通过分布式账本概念实现安全的数据交换；（ii）多维可视化和扩展现实（XR）环境可用性；（iii）低延迟；（四）防未来。该项目的预期结果是为高速公路数字双胞胎的可视化和交互产生一个原型。这将为将数字孪生（DT）纳入现代工作方法奠定基础，从而消除采用数字孪生的关键障碍之一。

Road stakeholders are increasingly realising that there is tremendous potential value to be gained by embracing DigitalTwin - based information and asset management for the entirety of a road life-cycle. Yet, past experience with AssetInformation Modelling has shown that even the richest asset models are significantly underutilised by stakeholderemployees. This is particularly true of employees with below-average technological competence and familiarity. ITproviders have rushed to place the blame on the employees and suggest that the sole remedy to this problem issupplemental technological education. In reality, the problem lies with the gap between current ways for human-datainteraction in this sector versus general platforms (Microsoft Metaverse) and social media firms (Meta). Therefore, theobjective of the project is to derive a framework for Digital Twin to data visualisation environments communication. Thepurpose is to enable (i) secure data exchanges via distributed ledger concepts; (ii) multidimensional visualisation andExtended Reality (XR) environments usability; (iii) low latency; and (iv) futureproofing. The expected outcome of theproject is to produce a prototype for the visualisation of and interaction with expressway Digital Twins. This will set thefoundations for encompassing Digital Twins (DT) into modern methods of working, thus tearing down one of the key DTadoption barriers.
