OneMekong Digital Twin Technology
Virtual models of real-world Mekong systems — for simulation, scenario testing and better planning across hydrology, climate and agriculture.
OneMekong is building a basin-wide digital twin that integrates hydrology, sediment, fisheries, agriculture and dam operations into one simulation environment. Decision-makers, scientists and communities can run "what if" scenarios — what happens if upstream reservoirs are released early? If monsoon onset is delayed by three weeks? If a sub-basin converts to drought-resistant crops?
Process-based hydrology calibrated against gauges and SWOT satellite data.
Sediment transport and fish-migration modules tied to the hydrology core.
Crop-yield modelling for the dominant Mekong cropping systems.
Run climate, infrastructure and policy scenarios and compare outcomes.
Query the twin programmatically — same data ministries and researchers use.
Pre-built dashboards for non-technical decision-makers.
