Abstract

Abstract: Digital twins connect the physical world and the information world, and provide new ideas for the analysis and solution of complex traffic problems. The research and application status of digital twins in transportation scenes are reviewed on the basis of sorting out the basic concepts, development history and key technologies of digital twins. The key technologies for the construction of digital twins in transportation scenes that need to be breakthrough are analyzed from the four aspects of "people-vehicle-road-environment" combined with the characteristics of the elements of traffic operation. The prospect of digital twin transportation applications in the development of vehicles, intelligent operation and maintenance of important infrastructure, unmanned virtual testing, analysis and experiments of traffic problems are expected.
