The Offline Data Viewer for AEC.
EdgeTwin is a local digital twin viewer that brings your 3D models and sensor data together. Stream live IoT data in any JSON format via HTTP or MQTT, or play back historical data using CSV files. No bloated SaaS subscriptions. No forced cloud lock-ins. It works right out of the box with your GLB model files, or explore our custom exporters below.
What is EdgeTwin?
EdgeTwin acts as an IoT edge gateway API. It connects your diverse, field-deployed sensors and devices to the EdgeTwin ecosystem by acting as an intermediary that normalizes raw telemetry data.
01
Ingest Data
It listens for raw data via HTTP Webhooks or actively subscribes to external 3rd-party MQTT brokers to pull data in real-time.
02
Map & Normalize
It applies customizable Mapping Profiles using JSONPath to extract critical metrics from unstructured JSON payloads, creating a strict, normalized format.
03
Broadcast
It republishes the clean, normalized data to its own embedded high-performance MQTT server, making it ready for downstream EdgeTwin digital twin services.
04
Simulate (CSV)
It can ingest historical sensor data from local CSV files and replay it as if it were live telemetry, enabling simulation without active hardware.
05
Visualize & Scrub
It offers a web-based 3D digital twin viewer with an interactive timeline slider, allowing you to pause live data and scrub backward in time.

Watch how easy it is to manage your digital twin and sensors directly from the EdgeTwin viewer.
DVR Timeline Scrubbing
Rewind and review historical telemetry data just like a video player. Our interactive timeline slider allows you to pause live feeds and scrub backward in time to analyze past events directly on your 3D models.
Configuring Sensors
Fine-tune your sensor parameters without touching a single line of code. Update mapping rules, adjust visual thresholds, and change data visualization styles on the fly through our intuitive UI.
Adding New Sensors
Expand your digital twin seamlessly. Drop new virtual sensors directly into the 3D space, assign them unique IDs, and immediately start routing live IoT data to them.
Universal CSV Playback
Turn any spreadsheet into a 3D simulation. Map structural analysis, solar radiation, or cost-estimations to 3D meshes and watch the data play out.
Live IoT Routing
A built-in local MQTT broker. Ingest standard HTTP JSON or direct MQTT telemetry from physical hardware and map it to your digital twin in milliseconds.
DVR Timeline Scrubbing
Don't just watch live data. Buffer incoming telemetry or load historical records, and scrub backward in time to replay physical states visually on the 3D model.
100% Local Data Sovereignty
EdgeTwin operates entirely on your Windows workstation. Your proprietary .glb models and client data never leave your local machine unless you want them to.
More than just IoT.
Connect and map physical sensors to your local IP to QA/QC your data pipeline before deploying to the mud.
Ditch Navisworks. Run lightweight, interactive 3D data simulations in the boardroom straight from a local .exe.
Map clash reports or issue trackers from a CSV to highlight problem areas dynamically in 3D space.
Need to go live?
EdgeTwin Desktop is designed for local security. But when your firm wins a major civic bid, a local .exe isn't enough. Fourth Hill Digital builds bespoke data architecture for the built environment.
