Success Stories: AI, Digital Twin for Utilities

Utilities face several challenges: expanding and growing the grid, repairing disaster struck areas, and providing data where and when people need it. This all comes at a time when projects are becoming more complex in an industry that needs to consider multi-agency planning.

The solution comes in the form of AI (artificial intelligence) and digital twins. Consider the example of Looq AI, which is a hardware-enabled AI company that has developed a new camera AI technology.

The Looq platform is a deep technology stack, with a proprietary Q camera system. This allows data to be captured in the field that then gets processed with Looq’s AI-based image-to-model software in the cloud. Ultimately, this will create geo-referenced 3D digital twins and topographic maps with survey-grade accuracy and AI semantic information.

Here is how this can help:

• Capture a large amount of survey-grade data without drones or hundreds of manhours.
• Get ...
