Abstract

A method includes: identifying a physical environment to be a basis for virtual training, the physical environment associated with performance of operations; creating, in a computer system, a three-dimensional (3D) model of the physical environment; defining, in the computer system, virtual operations to be performable during the virtual training, the virtual operations corresponding to the operations of the physical environment; identifying, in the computer system, a controllable component in the physical environment; creating, in the computer system, a 3D model of the identified controllable component; creating, in the computer system, a state model of the physical environment; and assembling, in the computer system, a virtual environment from the 3D model of the physical environment and the 3D model of the identified controllable component, and associating the created state model with the virtual environment.
