The ocean plays a vital role in our society and represents constantly changing landscape that is not well understood therefore needs continuous monitoring research. Sustainable essential to assess both the current future state of oceans. However, conventional faces significant challenges, including issues accessibility, spatial temporal constraints. development digital twins (DTO) offers an emerging technology could revolutionise understanding marine coastal environments. Current DTO have shown effectiveness environments European context. there need for Southern African Western Indian Ocean regions addresses specific concerns are relevant these regions. Successful depends on availability high-quality data. Therefore, various data inputs necessary build accurate twin. This paper explores can be utilised DTO, detailing how different variables collected integrated into As first step towards regions, proposes management plan its implementation DTO. based phases geospatial life cycle. Challenges regarding this possible solutions presented conclusion.
