Water managers get hands on with the AI-powered Digital Twin for the Limpopo river basin

Water managers from Southern Africa share their impressions of the Digital Twin developed by IWMI along with the Limpopo Watercourse Commission (LIMCOM) and partners. They also reflect on the Limpopo Water Copilot, an AI assistant that translates science-based insights into simple text summaries and graphics, and discuss the importance of including data from citizen scientists.
