1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed, are configured to cause a processor to perform operations comprising:
collecting a plurality of datasets associated with an asset of a plurality of assets from one or more sources based on a request received from a digital representation associated with the asset, wherein the digital representation is configured to perform a first set of simulations related to one or more operations of the asset over time, wherein the plurality of datasets comprises a plurality of types of data related to the one or more operations of the asset, wherein the asset comprises an industrial automation device of an industrial automation system;
aligning the plurality of datasets to generate a plurality of aligned datasets based on the plurality of types of data;
aggregating the plurality of aligned datasets into a single dataset comprising simulation data associated with the first set of simulations; and
transmitting the single dataset to the digital representation to perform a second set of simulations based on the single dataset.
