Is a platform where users buy (obtain) or sell (provide) different types of data sets and data streams from several sources.
Data marketplaces are mostly cloud services where individuals or businesses upload data to the cloud. Those platforms enable self-service data access while ensuring security, consistency and high quality of data for both parties.
A visual representation and organisation of elements of data and the connections between them. In the context of the geospatial domain, the elements refer to objects that exist in the real world and are represented as geospatial objects in the data model

Digital twins create a virtual replica of a physical product, process or system. The replica can for example predict when a machine will fail, based on data analysis, which allows to increase productivity through predictive maintenance.
The digital twin of government provides an ecosystem with an interface for government, industry and non-government organisations to work together in delivering a sustainable, intelligent place to live and work through improved societal outcomes.
Disruptive technology is an innovation that significantly alters the way that consumers, industries, or businesses operate. A disruptive technology sweeps away the systems or habits it replaces because it has attributes that are recognizably superior (…)
