Digital Twin Imaging, a Metaverse Imaging Company has been awarded a significant contract by the General Services Administration (GSA) to scan and digitally document all federally owned buildings across the United States. This comprehensive initiative will leverage cutting-edge scanning technology combined with Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to create detailed digital layouts of federal structures nationwide.
Under the terms of this contract, Digital Twin Imaging will conduct comprehensive scanning operations of federal buildings, capturing precise measurements and architectural details. The collected data will be processed through advanced LiDAR, BIM, and GIS technology platforms to generate accurate, three-dimensional digital models that provide detailed structural
layouts and spatial information.
The digital models produced through this initiative will serve multiple strategic purposes for federal agencies. The detailed documentation will enable government officials to identify and capitalize on underutilized space within existing buildings, potentially reducing the need for additional real estate acquisitions. Additionally, these models will serve as invaluable resources for future renovation planning, allowing for more accurate project scoping and cost estimation.
The comprehensive digital documentation will also enhance marketing capabilities for federal properties and provide critical security planning resources. The detailed layouts will enable security professionals to develop more effective emergency response protocols and building access strategies.
Digital Twin Imaging expects to complete the nationwide scanning initiative as regional proposals release, with digital models being delivered to federal agencies on a rolling basis as buildings are documented and processed.

The agency serves as a critical support infrastructure for federal operations, ensuring that government agencies have access to the resources, facilities, and services they need to effectively serve the American public.
GSA employs about 12,000 federal workers and has an annual operating budget of roughly $33 billion while overseeing $66 billion of procurement annually. The organization's scope is vast, encompassing everything from real estate management and construction to technology procurement and policy development. GSA owns or leases over 368.5 million square feet of space in 8,746 assets (buildings, land and structures) in more than 8,000 cities nationwide. Through its various programs, including GSA Schedule contracts that allow businesses to sell products and services to government customers, the agency plays a pivotal role in ensuring efficient, cost-effective government operations while promoting standardization and best practices across federal agencies.
