Smart City Digital Twins (SCDT) are virtual replicas of cities (or parts thereof) that integrate real-time data from various sources to enable simulation, monitoring, and optimization of urban systems for more efficient and sustainable urban management. In this article, we provide a survey of modular SCDTs, covering standardization and key enabling technologies. Modular hardware and software architectures pave way for standardization, which is crucial for efficient maintenance as well as scalability and portability to new application domains.
