Everything in a smart city is interconnected via a network of sensors or electronic devices that gather data; this data is used to improve the functioning of the city. But this can be complicated and expensive if not thoroughly tested first. Just like their precursor, simulation, digital twins are a way of creating a virtual depiction of something in the real world such as a car or city.
