Reality Modeling and Continuous Surveying for Advancing Intelligent InfrastructureWith the increased availability of survey data based on lower cost methods like drones and high resolution cameras or even mobile phones, combined with a leap forward in digital photogrammetry, we now enter the era of reality modeling. This is further enhanced by the possibility of “continuous surveying” which allows us to always have both the information of our existing infrastructure as well as the planned infrastructure both at our fingertips. This will allow infrastructure information to be “consumed” in new applications and by new user communities - continuously. This presentation will highlight in what ways the reality models can be created and give a number of use cases that explain the incremental value during downstream applications.
