###### Abstract
Therefore, establishing a continuous, unified, authoritative, and unique spatial foundation or geospatial framework in cities is an urgent task to support national economic information and local economic and social development [7; 8; 9]. With the progression of connectivity technologies such as AI and IoT, intelligent earth has been proposed, and hence the concept of Smart Cities (SCs) has been born [10]. Although the construction paths of SCs in different regions have different emphases, most of them have experienced a transition and iterative process from infrastructure-driven to process-driven and then to space-driven. Data-driven new industrial ecology has emerged in various places. The comprehensive development of the digital industry and the use of data as new energy is an important means to change the dependence of economic growth on natural energy. The combination of digitalization with energy-saving and low-carbon technologies is the focus, which can effectively promote the rational utilization of urban resources [11; 12]. Digital Twins (DTs) cities make full use of government networks, data exchange platforms, and modern information technology to give full play to the monitoring and screening ability, business operation guidance ability, information transparency, collaborative support, and decision support of information systems. Thus, it can realize the rapid discovery, accurate positioning, and intelligent decision-making of urban problems. The efficiency of management and allocation of urban public resources have improved, and decision-makers with a tool to perceive the overall situation of a city and a platform to command and dispatch are provided. DTs originated from the industrialization of complex product development and is moving towards urbanization and globalization. The metaverse, which originated from the game and entertainment industry of building relationships, is moving from globalization to urbanization and industrialization. [PERSON] et al. (2022) [13] believe that data were at the core of DTs, and the speed of data acquisition directly affected the interaction frequency of the virtual and real space of DTs. In the DTs and metaverse, data is its core supporting resource, and data is also the carrier and manifestation of information and knowledge. From the perspective of interaction, metaverse focuses on augmented reality technology to build a virtual world beyond the real world and to obtain an immersive user experience, while DTs focus more on virtual reality technology to generate the image of the real world. Geographic information actually plays a key role in a Digital City's (DC) construction [14; 15]. The Bureau of Surveying, Mapping, and Geographic Information made the pilot construction of the geospatial framework of a DC, which developed into an SC and turned into an industrial platform, now called a DTs city. In terms of technology, the rapid development and transformation of new information technologies such as 5G, cloud computing, and blockchain also affect the construction process of DTs cities [16]. The city-based digital space enables the collection, cleaning, storage, and standardization of data through the physical, information, social, and commercial infrastructure of the city. Smart transport and wisdom cities are empowered through the fusion data model of urban traffic intelligent prediction and decision-making [17; 18; 19]. The DTs urban technology architecture is composed of the infrastructure, information center, and application server ends. Urban intelligent management can be realized through physical urban data collection, transmission, processing, and digital urban visualization. The infrastructure terminal is mainly responsible for the collection and transmission of urban data, the information center is responsible for data reception, processing, and transmission, and the application server is the practical adoption of the DTs city model [20; 21].
