A digital twin of the Great Barrier Reef has been created. La Trobe University and the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) collaborated to build the digital twins using advanced artificial intelligence and 3D mapping.

The digital twin was created using supercomputers to study coral formation. Due to the impact of climate change on coral reefs, which causes coral bleaching, digital twins will play an important role in helping coral reef recovery through consistent monitoring enabled by digital twins.

3D imaging of the Great Barrier Reef was created using AI software such as Reef-NeRF and Reef-3DGS to make the digital twins. For more information on the digital twins being built by the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) and La Trobe University, check out the original news release here.
