Following the definition set out in the United Kingdom by Digital Built Britain, we understand a digital twin to be “...a realistic digital representation of assets, processes or systems in the built or natural environment…that adds social and economic value by augmenting the decision-making process.” Further, this digital representation has the capacity to exchange real time information with its physical twin and to use that information to learn, predict, or enact a possible response to a gi...
This presentation will explore how Sault Ste. Marie leveraged two decades of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to craft and maintain its cutting-edge Digital Twin. Exploring the innovative applications of Sault Ste. Marie’s GIS digital twin model, which offers real-time insights allowing for collaboration and more effective decision making, this presentation showcases the transformative potential of GIS enabled digital twins. We will demonstrate how this comprehensive digital r...
Monitoring large numbers of activities and assets from space has long been an aspirational “holy grail” for satellite remote sensing. However, lack of observational cadence, collection capacity, sufficient resolution, multisource capabilities and contextual understanding of monitored sites has meant that true monitoring has been limited to a handful of key facilities and mission use cases. Will we as an industry be able to overcome current challenges and turn site monitoring into a mainstream...

The domains of BIM and GIS have historically been separate areas of expertise and been considered distinct and separate domains. However, the need for geospatial technologies to integrate with Building Information Modeling (BIM) design applications and the need for BIM geometry and data to be applied in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is becoming more prevalent. In the rapidly evolving period of urban development, BIM and GIS emerge as pivotal technology tools shaping the future of...
The Department of National Defence, as steward of a real property (RP) portfolio that includes tens of thousands of buildings and supporting infrastructure, is seeking to manage its Real Property (RP) assets more effectively by modernizing and improving its digital capability. In this effort, interoperability between BIM and GIS through open data standards is crucial to enable the Integrated Digital Built Environment. BIM allows representation of detailed information regarding building elemen...

The City of Ottawa (City) annually invests about $3M in studies of the local subsurface geotechnical, hydrogeological, and environmental conditions in support of municipal planning, development proposals, infrastructure designs, construction, and environmental protection studies. Much of this valuable information remains with individual consulting firms and in City project files, so this data is relatively inaccessible and not ready for use to internal and external stakeholders.
