This guide specifies methods and procedures for modeling digital twins of overhead transmission lines and towers. It covers geometric modeling; three‑dimensional representation; alignment of environmental (e.g., weather) and operational data with the geometric model; real‑time model evolution; and status awareness. The digital twin supports early warning during extreme weather events, such as hurricanes and blizzards.

Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
No Active Projects
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
No Active Standards
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
