Digital Twin
Responsive Web
Overview
Aldar Digital Twin is a gaming-inspired responsive web app that offers interactive real-time views, and intelligent insights, of every Aldar real estate asset in Abu Dhabi.
Challenge
Spreadsheets meet Gaming Engine.
The client had an overwhelming volume of real estate data spread out on multiple fragmented Excel spreadsheets which were siloed from other departments. The lack of centralization created a lot of inconsistency, redundancy, and duplicate sources of truth not to mention very slow verification processes to unveil reality. The mandate came in to unify this data into a single source of truth, and to do so in a fun, interactive manner built for the future.
Solution
What if doing work felt like playing a game?
Aldar hired JLL for the job knowing they would deliver nothing but sheer class and cutting-edge excellence. My role as Experience Design Lead for this particular project as an external consultant was to lead the design practice for the duration of the project's build.
Here, we met the client on-site at the Aldar HQ and conducted a two day Design Thinking Workshop to understand who the key stakeholders are (who would also be the users of the web app), how data is collated and shared today, what the future state would need to look like, and what data and insights they would need to be able to extract from the solution we will be building.
In this workshop, we enthusiastically concluded on building an interactive real-time 3D representation of the entire landscape of Abu Dhabi in, what is known as, a Digital Twin. Here, authorized users can see a holistic map view of the Emirate, zoom in, pan around, and drill into a particular asset to view relevant data and extract key insights from the view in question.
