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...
In an increasingly complex and rapidly evolving geospatial landscape, the demand for skilled professionals who can deliver tailored solutions is at an all-time high. Recognizing this need, GoGeomatics Canada, the Sault Ste. Marie Innovation Centre (SSMIC), and OnPar have joined forces to provide comprehensive staff augmentation services that cater to both the private and public sectors.This presentation at GeoIgnite 2024 will detail ...
The Carleton University Immersive Media Studio (CIMS) was awarded a New Frontiers in Research Fund (NFRF) Exploration program grant to Imagine Canada’s Digital Twin. One aspect of the project is data governance and business models. In addition, the I Trust AI research SSHRC funded project based out of UBC, is examining the CIMS and city of Ottawa Digital Twins to assess how their creators might include preservation in their design. These research projects revealed that the Architecture, Engin...
Within its highly dynamic environment, Geospatial Leaders need to integrate knowledge, knowhow, and leadership skills to promote and fully enable this domain while communicating their value proposition to decision makers. This talk will introduce a Framework for leadership development to assist Geospatial Leaders to optimize their success as leaders a...
Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS), or drones, are becoming more common in the construction industry as a key tool to complete complex building and infrastructure projects. As technology improves, the barriers to adoption are reduced, creating a huge opportunity for the industry to improve the construction process and support the ongoing digital transformation. Drones boost productivity by enabling construction teams to rapidly and easily survey job sites, track progress, and spot poten...

Discover how this roadmap has been crafted to capitalize on global ...
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.
Global urban expansion is rapidly increasing, with over 50% currently living in cities and an expected rise to 66% by 2050. This growth poses challenges for peri-urban areas, including agricultural land loss, biodiversity destruction, and climate change impacts. Comprehensive research, integrating urban and rural perspectives, is vital, emphasizing the need for quantitative methods like the model analysis approach. The complexity of urban systems, inspired by ecological theories, requires geo...
