The crane radar: Development and deployment of an operational eco-digital twin by K. De Koning

“…By showing an example of the crane radar, a real-time digital twin of the common crane (Grus grus) migration, this paper illustrates what digital twins could look like in ecology, and which challenges modellers face towards actual deployment of their digital twin in an operational environment.The most important challenges identified here are: ex ante quality and error control of the input data; accounting for time lags between observations and data availability; harmonising the updating frequencies and temporal resolutions of models and data; developing robust model/software code to keep digital twins alive; the necessity of learning new skills for ecological modellers; and effectively communicating digital twin outputs to stakeholders. …”
