3D Digital Twin Infrastructure Simulation

Job ID: 40626885

Budget: ₹37,500 – ₹75,000 INR

Project Title

3D Digital Twin Platform for Depot Planning, Logistics & Emergency Response

Project Overview

I am looking for an experienced development team to build a high-fidelity 3D Digital Twin platform for a large logistics/depot environment.

The objective is to create a virtual replica of a depot that enables:

Infrastructure visualisation

Logistics planning

Vehicle movement simulation

Emergency response training

Firefighting simulations

Maintenance planning

AI-assisted infrastructure analysis

Personnel training in VR/Desktop environments


The software should function as a planning and decision-support tool.


---

Objectives

The system should:

Create a realistic 3D representation of an entire depot.

Import maps, CAD drawings, or GIS data.

Simulate daily operations.

Train personnel using virtual scenarios.

Identify infrastructure bottlenecks.

Support future AI integration.
