Digital twins and deep maps

open access: yesTransactions of the Institute of British Geographers, Volume 50, Issue 1, March 2025.
Short Abstract We reflect on our work to produce a 3D city information model (CIM) for Dublin that acts as a basic digital twin, and our initial attempt to use the CIM to create a deep map. We consider the politics of creating digital twins and deep maps and what they mean for how we understand the nature of mapping, arguing that they produce a dyadic ...
