DiPiWi

Detailed overview

A digital twin platform for utility networks, helping communities analyze risks, plan repairs, and manage infrastructure recovery.

Problem the platform solves

Many communities still work with fragmented information about water, sewage, heat, and related systems. That makes it difficult to prioritize repairs, identify critical nodes, and justify investments.

What the digital twin provides

The platform combines technical data, network geometry, damage history, repairs, losses, risk indicators, and load scenarios into one working environment for analysis and recovery planning.

Where it is most useful

DiPiWi is valuable for municipalities, utilities, project teams, donor programs, and technical advisors who must manage complex infrastructure under pressure and budget constraints.

Why it matters to the foundation

For the foundation, the platform creates an evidence base for infrastructure recovery projects by showing where risks are highest, what interventions deliver the greatest impact, and why a given investment should come first.
