Scottish Canals Uses Digital Twin to Regulate Canal’s Water-Storage Capacity
Glasgow's canals, used as trade routes for centuries, face climate change impacts. Severe weather causes flooding, making the area unusable. Scottish Canals used digital twin flood modeling to regulate water storage, predict drainage routes, and compensate for flooding along the Forth and Clyde Canal. The transformed canal area now includes housing and a nature preserve. Technology revitalizes these historic canals, ensuring their resilience.
