Abstract
An approach for predicting and/or discovering pest infestation as it impacts building infrastructure by leveraging digital twin computing is disclosed. The approach utilizes digital twin of streets, building, housing complex, community parks and pests. The approach can simulate the optimal breeding condition and sites for pests based on factors such as weather pattern, historical data, real time data, pest data and building design and material. Based on the simulation, the approach can recommend corrective actions to mitigate pests based on the scenarios.
Claims20
A computer-implemented method for predicting and/or discovering pest infestation as it impacts building infrastructure, the computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving data associated with a building infrastructure;
- generating a digital twin copy of the building infrastructure based on the received data;
- generating pest result data based on simulating one or more pest control scenarios associated with the digital twin copy;
- analyzing the pest result data;
- creating an action plan based on analysis;
- and
- outputting the action plan.
A computer program product for predicting and/or discovering pest infestation as it impacts building infrastructure, the computer program product comprising:
- one or more computer readable storage media and program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media, the program instructions comprising:
- program instructions to receive data associated with a building infrastructure;
- program instructions to generate a digital twin copy of the building infrastructure based on the received data;
- program instructions to generate pest result data based on simulating one or more pest control scenarios associated with the digital twin copy;
- program instructions to analyze the pest result data;
- program instructions to create an action plan based on analysis;
- and
- program instructions to output the action plan.
A computer system for predicting and/or discovering pest infestation as it impacts building infrastructure, the computer system comprising:
- one or more computer processors;
- one or more computer readable storage media;
- program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more computer processors, the program instructions comprising:
- program instructions to receive data associated with a building infrastructure;
- program instructions to generate a digital twin copy of the building infrastructure based on the received data;
- program instructions to generate pest result data based on simulating one or more pest control scenarios associated with the digital twin copy;
- program instructions to analyze the pest result data;
- program instructions to create an action plan based on analysis;
