Digital twins: a real site and its live twin side by side, updated from the same telemetry.

Nexus Observatory

/

Digital twins and simulation
Model the site before you build it.

Site twins measured in 3D, network twins that predict coverage, power and timing, Earth twins on real elevation and live observations, and scenario simulation that tests a plan against flood, heat, load and failure before a contract is signed.

In the field

River basin

Water-level gauges along a river valley floor, a weather station and an edge node: the red isoline is the ground that lies within a few metres of the lowest point of the reach.

01 · What this platform covers

Digital twins and simulation, area by area.

Choose an area for its systems, standards, the industries it serves and how we deliver it.

01

Site twins

The site in 3D, measured to scale.
02

Network twins

Coverage, capacity, power and timing, simulated.
03

Earth twins

Terrain, hydrology and atmosphere, on live observations.
04

Scenario simulation

Floods, heat, load and failure, run before they happen.
05

Planning

From the twin to a plan you can tender.

02 · Built on the open protocol

One protocol under every platform.

Marked: the functions this platform leans on hardest. The protocol itself is open, so what you build here runs anywhere the protocol runs.
