Extended Abstract:Introduction:Undoubtedly, the main motivation of all planning is to achieve sustainable development, regional balance, proper distribution of activities and maximum use of environmental capabilities in the process of regional development. Land is a limited and vulnerable resource, but many of its benefits, if not to be abused, are eternal and renewable. In the planning system, the dimension of space is very important and the principles of spatial planning include the principles of sustainability, integrity and comprehensiveness.Developed countries and developing countries both need skills and guidelines in the field of spatial information, methods, frameworks, tools and templates that can use spatial information in timely and accessible decision-making and move forward and to be supportive to sustainable development goals.The purpose of this study is to investigate the applications and political and economic effects as well as the feasibility of using modern technologies such as: Internet of Things - Cloud Computing and Edge Computing - Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning - Data Mining and Spatial Behavior Mining with the help of Virtual Reality and monitoring Spatial-Temporal changes, all of which are essential to Digital Twin, focusing on land management and sustainable development.Materials & Methods:This article is based on studying the findings and trends implemented in the three leading areas of land administration: The United States, Australia and the European Union and trying to localize those trends in our country.In this research, the comparative study method has been used, which shows a gap of at least ten years between the current situation of spatial information management in our country and what is happening in the leading countries in this field. The study areas include: architecture and structure-political and governance approach-emerging technologies-software- rules and restrictions.The enabler tools used in this research are the complete familiarity with architecture, software, technologies and current instructions in the field of geospatial sciences in the country, and on the other hand, the study of more than eighty articles and more than ten books in the field of the latest global achievements and the review of all reliable portals of the geospatial information and finally a comparative comparison of these two concepts and drawing a road map.Preparation of 2D and 3D cadastral maps of all geographic entities and assignment of legal and ownership information to these entities and then 3D visualization of these combined spatial data in a suitable portal for the preparation of functional spatial analysis are discussed in detail in the implementation method of this research.Results & Discussion:Utilizing the knowledge and technology in creating a Digital Twin platform and adding its powerful tools to the country's national geospatial information infrastructure will lead to maximum productivity and the growth of the economy and social equality, and its highest feedback is the realization of sustainable development in the country.As the Gartner Institute's technology evaluation indexes as well as the CAGR index and the economic impact evaluation reports of the leading countries show, the acquisition of the Digital Twin technology will greatly contribute to the prosperity of the country's economy.In this research, an attempt has been made to mention all the technical and management tools necessary to achieve this infrastructure, and also a prioritization has been done according to the time of achieving the goals.Conclusion:The results of this research show that filling the gap between the current state of the country's spatial information management and the desired state requires investment, culture and serious efforts of those involved in this field, and on the other hand, a positive point can be mentioned that with following the paths taken by developed countries, it is possible to achieve an optimal model and a clear and error-free path to achieve these goals.The localization of global instructions and the development of a conceptual model of action to resolve the existing technology gap will pave the way for the establishment of new technologies in the country, and with the maturity of the technical and operational branches of these models, we will come closer to the realization of sustainable development in the country.On the other hand, without cooperation and coordination between all the governmental bodies involved in the country's geomatic sciences, in addition to the private sector and the society, it seems unlikely to achieve this great achievement, because the creation of such a powerful infrastructure requires a harmonious and coherent national movement.It is hoped that this article will make a small achievement to the formation of strategic thinking in the management of spatial information sciences in the country and provide a complete picture of the dark corners of the development path as well as helping the decision makers in our beloved country.
