GIS & Digital Twin Mapping
Interactive India Map platform with granular visibility from State level down to Village Wards, seamlessly integrated with NIC GIS. Digital twin visualization of underground pipelines, reservoirs, and critical water assets β simulate, monitor, and analyze in real time via 3D spatial visualization.
What This Layer Does
The GIS & Digital Twin layer transforms abstract water infrastructure data into a living, interactive 3D model of the physical network. Every pipeline, valve, tank, sensor, and junction is geolocated and rendered in real time. The BFS flow simulation engine propagates water through the modeled network in real time, predicting where flow will reach β respecting valve states and network topology.
Features & Capabilities
3D Pipeline Twin
All underground pipelines rendered as 3D tubes with real-time water flow animation. Pipe diameter, material, pressure class, and installation depth shown on click.
Village-Ward Resolution
GIS hierarchy from National β State β District β Mandal β Village β Ward. Each level reveals the water network assets at that administrative unit.
NIC GIS Integration
Direct API integration with NIC ensures IWMS maps align with official government spatial data, administrative boundaries, and eJalShakti reporting.
BFS Flow Simulation
Breadth-First Search algorithm propagates water from source tanks in real time. Valve states are respected β closed valves block flow. Essential for NRW isolation.
Live Sensor Overlay
IoT sensor readings rendered as colour-coded overlays on the 3D map. Red = fault, amber = warning, green = normal.
GIS Pipeline Drawing
Operators draw new pipeline segments, place tanks and valves, set properties (diameter, material, depth) directly on the 3D map.
