- Before You Build the Digital Twin: Lessons Learned Before ImplementationMany organizations are exploring digital twins to improve operations and decision-making, but success depends on far more than the technology. This session shares practical lessons from real-world work on digital twin initiatives for critical infrastructure: assessing data readiness, building a strong GIS foundation, prioritizing a first phase, and planning for growth without overcommitting. Rather than a demo, this is a candid look at pitfalls, key decisions, and lessons learned for attendees' own initiatives.

- Building the Digital Airport Campus for Infrastructure ManagementDenver International Airport (DEN) and Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) will share how they moved beyond traditional indoor mapping to establish a comprehensive Indoor GIS foundation for managing complex airport infrastructure. Learn how BIM, CAD, and enterprise systems were integrated with floor-aware GIS to create a connected view of terminals, concourses, offices, assets, and operational spaces. Attendees will gain insights into implementation approaches, lessons learned, and the benefits of ArcGIS Indoors for facilities, planning, operations, and engineering teams.
