Key issues should be addressed in digital twin water network construction
Cai Yang
Abstract：Digital twin water network construction involves interdisciplinary and integration of new technologies,posing several significant challenges.The construction process should focus on problem-oriented approaches,strengthen the data foundation,optimize core algorithms,enhance computing capacity support,emphasize business application,and ensure network security.Based on the pilot experiences,key issues surrounding the safety of structures,water supply,and water quality are discussed.The proposed solutions include defining the content and focus areas according to construction objectives and conducting need analysis driven by key issues;building an"space-air-earth"integrated detection monitoring and sensing system,improving ground monitoring networks,developing new sensing capabilities,strengthening data governance,promoting data sharing,and consolidating the data foundation are essential;optimizing model platforms,developing a knowledge platform,and refining core algorithms;expanding computing resources and upgrading communication networks by constructing the Information Technology Innovation Cloud Platform and high-performance computing clusters;enhancing the smart water network regulation and control capabilities,and focusing on realizing"forecast,early warning,rehearsal,and planning"for operations;building a robust network security system to protect network and data security;clarifying the relationship between digital twin basins,digital twin water networks,and digital twin projects to improve overall efficiency.
