VIRTUAL TWINS is an Indoor Mapping, Indoor Positioning, and real-time localization platform for large buildings and campuses. By digitizing building data, it provides visual maps, route navigation, and information displays for rooms, POIs, floors, and entire sites. Typical use cases include complex spaces such as hospitals, campuses, corporate office buildings, trade shows, and cruise ships.
The platform emphasizes quickly converting CAD building data into usable geographic data, with high-resolution 2D/3D maps. Users can view maps and real-time information in a Web App without downloading anything. For navigation, it supports turn-by-turn directions from any room or POI to any destination. Map Management is a key focus: with CAD plugins, changes to rooms, POIs, or renovations can be updated within minutes, reducing long-term maintenance costs. Another notable capability is Identity & Access Management, where different user groups only see the building details they are authorized to access, helping protect sensitive spatial data.
From a developer-tooling perspective, this is not a typical self-service API product; it is closer to an industry platform solution. The main content mentions support for the IMDF standard, and maps can be used in websites, apps, and workflows. It can also connect to different applications and systems through standardized interfaces, and display external data sources on the map in real time with geographic referencing. In addition, it can be integrated into websites, native apps, terminals, social media, and RTLS scenarios. However, the page does not disclose API/SDK names, authentication methods, sample code, or developer documentation, so technical transparency is limited.
The website does not publish pricing, plans, licensing models, or payment methods. It only highlights “implementation within weeks,” “lower costs,” and low lifecycle costs enabled by the CAD plugin. Whether it supports self-hosting, private deployment, SLA commitments, or local data residency is also not stated and would need to be confirmed through a demo or sales discussion.
Its strengths are a complete capability chain covering map creation, maintenance, navigation, permissions, and real-time visualization. It is well suited to large organizations that already have CAD data. Its 3D visualization and permission-based maps are useful for sensitive spaces such as hospitals. The drawbacks are limited developer resources, opaque pricing, and the fact that the main content is in German; support for the Chinese market is unknown. It is a good fit for organizations that need customized indoor navigation and building digital twins, but not for individual developers who simply want to quickly call a general-purpose mapping API.
Access from mainland China, network stability, and payment support are not covered in the available content, so they are considered unknown. Alternatives worth comparing include MazeMap, Mappedin, HERE Indoor Positioning, IndoorAtlas, and ArcGIS Indoors.
