Abstract
Digital Twin (DT) technologies have demonstrated a positive impact across various stages of the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. Nevertheless, the industry has been slow to undergo digital transformation. The paper utilizes the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach to study a total of 842 papers on the application of DT in buildings, landscapes, and urban environments (BLU) from 2018 to 2024. Based on the research results, suggestions have been made for future research and practical directions. Meanwhile, it provides assistance to BLU’s designers, constructors, managers, and policymakers in establishing their understanding of the digital transformation of the AEC industry. The existing relevant research can be mainly divided into three categories: case study, framework study, and technology study. Compared with the buildings and urban environment industries, the number and depth of research in the landscape industry are relatively low. Through in-depth analysis of BLU projects, three research trends in the future are determined: (1) research and application of DT framework in the design and planning stage; (2) development of design tools and basic theory based on DT model; (3) application and exploration of DT technology in the landscape industry.
