Abstract: Systems and methods may be used to implement twinned or linked digital avatars as an edge avatar and a cloud avatar for a particular physical device in an industrial site. The edge avatar is configured to ingest data generated in the industrial site and to use a model for the particular physical device to obtain device-specific parameters related to the particular physical device. The edge avatar also sends information related to the device-specific parameters to a cloud avatar that is linked to the edge avatar. The cloud avatar is implemented in a cloud network away from the industrial site. The edge avatar is also configured to receive updates from the cloud avatar for the edge avatar and to refine the edge avatar using the updates.
