In the domain of Data Analysis, Modeling and AI, DigiShape focuses on the broad use of artificial intelligence (AI) and the development of Digital Twins to make the water sector future-proof. Due to the increasing impact of climate changes, such as flooding due to sea level rise, extreme rainfall and prolonged drought, AI and Digital Twins offer new solutions. This will allow traditional methods not only to be improved but also to be applied on a larger scale.
Digital Twins – digital copies of physical water systems – make it possible to analyse complex scenarios in real time and simulate future situations. In addition, DigiShape develops machine learning algorithms and surrogate models that can provide new insights with data from both local and external sources. This technology makes it possible to run simulations accurately while scaling in time and space. This will enable us to better predict how water systems will respond to changes and make better informed decisions.
DigiShape is also committed to making AI techniques accessible by sharing knowledge and experiences from experiments and practical applications. In doing so, we contribute to a flexible and resilient water management system that is ready to tackle the challenges of climate change.
