Abstract: Safeguards inspections and potential nuclear disarmament verification inspections need thorough planning, long preparation periods and, given that possible errors might cause an interruption of the continuity of knowledge, happen under the risk of vast political consequences. Digital tools in the form of virtual reality (VR) applications or digital twins can support decision making and risk assessment before and during inspections through live data analysis and thus can help to mitigate the source of errors. They might further allow for remote access to inspected sites which otherwise would not be physically accessible due to conditions like danger, timeliness or political tension. In the context of nuclear disarmament, they could contribute to trust building between parties by disclosing (just the) agreed information to the inspecting party while protecting interests of the inspected party.In this talk we will present a proof-of-concept VR tool for remote nuclear disarmament verification inspection developed at the Program on Science and Global Security at Princeton University as well as the ongoing work on a digital twin of an interim or final nuclear waste disposal sites for safeguard inspections executed at Forschungszentrum Jülich. Both projects will serve as a basis to discuss the benefits and limits of digital inspection tools.
