Verified digital twins are a critical step towards decarbonising real estate
There are many applications for digital twins in real estate, including conducting audits and identifying areas where improvements can be made, such as reducing water consumption or replacing ageing lamps with LED lighting. An accurate 3D model can also help to identify areas where insulation should be added, or where heat pumps and solar panels could be installed. This can reduce the cost and time to implement sustainable projects.

The starting point of any ESG strategy for real
estate is accurate, verified spatial data
Our team brings a powerful blend of architectural expertise, BIM proficiency, digital surveying accuracy and creative production. This enables our clients to improve their understanding of their assets, utilising the accurate measurement data captured by DRC’s team of Digital Surveyors to drive value. Considering both 2D and 3D measurements helps to fully understand a building’s DNA, the vital starting point in achieving in-depth knowledge of its carbon footprint.
