About the event
In this talk, Prof. Blair will present on the opportunities and distinctive challenges in developing digital twins of the natural environment. He will also discuss opportunities for collaboration with the LLODIA community, focussing on two key areas. Firstly, he will chart the importance of underlying Digital Research Infrastructure to support the development of digital twins, including support for the FAIR Principles applied to a range of digital assets. He will then discuss a particular view of digital twins that combines both data understanding and understanding from scientific processes in what is a dynamic system that can learn and improve over time. This will lead to an open discussion on the potential of languages, logics and ontologies in supporting this vision of environmental digital twins.
