More than geometry
The twin should represent the work, not only the object
Useful layers include the site, machines, routes, work zones, task state, measurements and acceptance status — all linked to their source.

- Machines
- Tasks and evidence
Digital Twin
A live connection between the project and the site
For RESILEX, a Digital Twin is not only a 3D model. It is the shared record of what should exist, what machines are doing and what has actually been measured.
That record allows the Orchestrator to make the next decision from the real state of the site rather than from an outdated plan.

From design to decision
Keep the model accountable to the physical world
A useful twin closes the loop: information moves from the project to the machines and measured evidence comes back.
- 01
Design intent
Geometry, systems, sequence, tolerances and acceptance requirements.
- 02
Machine task
A specific operation with references, limits and a work zone.
- 03
Physical work
The approved operation changes the terrain, structure or equipment state.
- 04
Site measurement
Sensors, cameras, LiDAR and surveying data record what changed.
- 05
Actual state
The model is updated with observed geometry, machines and task progress.
- 06
Next decision
Accept the result, investigate a deviation or revise the plan.
A simple example
A measured deviation changes what happens next
If the finished excavation level differs from the project, the system records the difference and does not release the next operation until the result is accepted or corrected.
- Required level
- Measured level
- Decision
Across the lifecycle
The as-built state should not be lost after construction
Verified information can later support commissioning, inspection, maintenance and the replacement of equipment without rebuilding the site record from scratch.

- Commissioning

Where we are now
The first twin will be deliberately narrow
The initial target is not a complete industrial viewer. It is enough site and task state to support one excavation operation, measurement and acceptance decision.
