The concept of a digital twin (DT), rooted in mid-20th-century ideas, has recently gained significant traction even outside software simulation and engineering modeling. recent advancements computational power the development model integration methodologies have enabled creation virtual replicas complex physical objects. success DTs also pushed for exploration their use other domains, especially where systems are at stake. One these cases, which is focus this paper, modeling cities way they transformed via technologies into so-called smart cities. In systems, huge amount data that made accessible constantly updated sensor networks suggests one can dedicated to urban scenario as data-driven decision-making devices. However, DT was not developed socio-technical requires careful analysis when applied scenarios. While information become integrated city management, reduced complexity city.
