Propuesta de procesos y componentes para la implementación de Gemelos Digitales en proyectos de edificaciones con usos BIM en Colombia

Abstract

Abstract The BIM methodology establishes a common data environment (CDE) to plan, design, build and operate assets throughout their life cycle (Spain, 2021).The incorporation of precise and reliable digital twins that allows more efficient decision making during the operation and maintenance phases with the creation of advanced virtual replicas that integrate real-time data from sensors and operational systems allowing dynamic monitoring, simulation and data-based predictive maintenance (Constructivo, 2024). National guides such as Chile, Spain, Colombia, etc., promote their convergence to create Smart Cities and sustainable infrastructure. Examples such as Virtual Singapore illustrate how BIM + GIS + Digital Twins improve collaborative, efficient and resilient urban management (Ministerio, 2023). The IDB and the DNP of Colombia promote this strategy to promote technological convergence that strengthens smart infrastructure and sustainable cities. The results indicate that by identifying and characterizing the critical processes and components such as technology, methodology, and organization at the different stages of the life cycle necessary for the effective implementation of digital twins that integrate BIM methodologies in the Colombian context, elements of the transition toward dynamic, data-driven management models were evidenced. This was based on the analysis of current processes, a review of the state of the art, and the identification of integration elements between BIM and digital twins.
