Agricultural landscapes form a complex system of interacting and changing elements and subsystems. They involve stakeholders from varying disciplines each with their own resources and perspectives. Understanding and working with such a complex system requires a comprehensive description of the whole ecosystem and an approach that enables interoperable and cross-scale management of distributed information resources. We introduce a concept that we call the distributed digital twin of the agricultural landscape, which handles the distributed nature of resources over different stakeholders and platforms while providing a basis for integrating both pre-existing, historical and real-time information for physical things such as landscape objects.    «
