Summary/Abstract: Urban planning has encountered numerous challenges due to the rapid growth of the cities in order to provide for suitable living circumstances, including satisfying the need for basic services, affordable housing for all residents, transportation and employment, and to fulfil the main Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The urban development must be guided by national and local authorities in order to maximize opportunities, requiring a harmonic coordination between policies and investments. The concept of Digital Twin has many opportunities to expand in the future, since it is constantly evolving, developing new features to provide the data required to optimize products and processes in a safe environment and decreasing the risks and costs of introducing new procedures. ArcGIS Urban is designed to improve urban planning and decision making and offers users the option of viewing multiple potential development perspectives and subjecting them to public review to ensure that the benefits of the community restrictions outweigh the costs.
