Design and Engineering is one of the most promising
verticals for the geospatial industry. Convergence of
different engineering and geospatial technologies such
as CAD, BIM, GIS and 3D modeling at the time of
designing is said to avoid clashes during actual
construction of the buildings. It also assists in energy
modeling, asset management and safety of human
resources for the given project. Adding to this
convergence modern day surveying and positioning
technology, the process of building can be monitored
efficiently in real time as well. Geospatial World Forum
offers a full day symposium on Design and Engineering,
which shall bring forth the concepts, applications, and
case studies covering wide spectrum of geospatial
information and technologies in the field.
The symposium will cover the following:
Construction Tools, Design and Engineering
Convergence and Interoperability Challenges
Challenges and Emerging Trends
Integrating GIS in the engineering, planning and
design processes
Sustainable Design Process
Precision Measurement of Mammoth Structure
Mashing GIS with BIM in the Clouds
