June 18, 2026 – The Digital Twin Consortium® (DTC) and the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS) have entered into an agreement to collaborate on the advancement of geospatial and mapping sciences.
In a statement, DTC said that the two groups will collaborate on “Realizing interoperability by harmonizing technology components and other elements” and “Aligning work in DTC Capabilities and Technology for adoption within vertical domains through proof of value projects and use cases.” To this end, DTC said it will “exchange information through regular consultations, seminars, and training development vehicles.
Specifically, the agreement covers:
- Composable and Architectural Frameworks,
- Advanced Capabilities and Technology showcases
- Security and Trustworthiness applications
- Conceptual, informational, structural, and behavioral models
- Enabling technologies such as AR, VR, AI, and other advancements
- Case study development from initial concept through operational analysis
Commenting on the agreement, Srini Dharmapuri, Chair of the ASPRS Digital Twin Working Group, said, “Through this partnership, ASPRS seeks to collaborate with the DTC in advancing standards, best practices, and knowledge-sharing initiatives that promote high-accuracy, data-driven digital twin ecosystems,”
Also, Dan Isaacs, GM & CTO of Digital Twin Consortium, stated, “ASPRS’ experience in developing guidelines and standards for creating high-resolution, high-accuracy geospatial data will be very valuable as we work together to advance the use of digital twins across all industries.”
