Improved BIM and GIS integration has enabled teams to successfully support project delivery and operations by adding valuable context throughout an asset’s life cycle. AEC project teams and Owner/Operators can visualize, monitor, and gain insight into their projects with ArcGIS. With the ability to integrate BIM, Point Clouds, 3D Mesh and Dashboards along with field data collection and other site level geospatial data, ArcGIS is emerging as a collaborative Project Delivery Digital Twin.
3D city models are a public resource for understanding the future and history of places. Developing and preserving city models as a cultural resource requires collaboration among designers, GIS professionals, and archivists. citySchema.org provides free templates and tools for developing and managing city models -- using a streamlined workflow built on ArcGIS Pro Tasks; producing an open catalog / repository that exposes tiled terrain models and individual building models in open formats.

Access to Geo-data information is critical to make informed decisions at a ground level. Digital twin models of cities created using lidar, hi resolution nadir and oblique orthoimagery can offer a wide range of solutions to public utilities and GIS stakeholders. And being able to visualize and simulate events in a 3D environment provide a realistic view of assets and supports emergency management services in responding to event.
