Digital twin of a city
How a city's digital twin works in practice
The city’s digital twin connects all data about city assets into one system.
It allows you to have an immediate overview of buildings, land, infrastructure and public space – including their technical condition and connections.
Thanks to the digital twin, the city makes decisions based on current and accurate data, not estimates.
You can learn more about the digital twin in our article.

A digital twin is not just a city map. It is a comprehensive digital model that connects spatial, technical and operational data into a single functional unit.
In a digital twin, you have control over buildings and their technical condition (BIM), land and property relations, transport infrastructure, technical infrastructure, public green spaces, cemeteries and public spaces, the link to the DTM and legislative obligations.
Our digital twin has many features that you will appreciate when planning various projects – for example, it will allow you to easily measure distances, elevation profiles, display floodplains according to data from a given basin or other institutions. You can easily display which buildings belong to the city, which are state-owned. You can identify private or municipal land based on cadastral data.
Planning with a digital twin is much easier, clearer and saves time and costs. Thanks to accurate data, you have all the data in one place, in geodetic accuracy, immediately ready to use.
GIS OCTOPUS asset data management system
The digital twin is connected to our advanced CAFM system for cities and campuses, which ensures advanced registration, administration and management of assets.
Main functions of the system:
- Current technical documentation for buildings and facilities in one place
- Overview of connections to engineering networks in DTM and their internal distribution in buildings
- Recording of contracts and obligations, building occupancy and leases
- Planning of statutory inspections
- Recording of faults, preventive maintenance and investments
- Building energy management – energy monitoring, IoT
