    • Are we there yet? How technology is closing the “smart city” gap

      Karina Teichmann
      Karina Teichmann

      Entire cities can be modeled quickly and cost-effectively

      written by Aidan Mercer, Global Marketing Director Government and Utilities at Bentley Systems

      It’s hard to talk infrastructure without hearing the terms “smart cities” or smarter processes. These terms are spurious at best. What we do know is that infrastructure in general is going through a transformative change to incorporate a multitude of new software, processes, mega trends and advancements that are collectively…

      I think you'll enjoy this article in ENR by Tom Sawyer on how Cedarville Engineering leveraged drone usage and ContextCapture to dramatically reduce the cost of surveying a former industrial site in Coatesville, PA.  They were able to further the city's efforts to encourage the industrial site's cost-effective re-use and economic development.  Reality modeling is helping to make a real difference by reducing…

    • I Think 3D Therefore I am

      Aidan Mercer
      Aidan Mercer

      When it comes to sustaining the world’s infrastructure, where would we be without software? Where would we be without hardware vendors? What would have happened to infrastructure if we didn’t have digitization and progress through computers? I’m not trying to be entirely philosophical, and it is hardly cogito ergo sum but it is an interesting thought. World population in 1950 was 2,556 billion and by…

      I’m not one for a riddle. I find them a frustration, especially as I’m not that adept in solving them. I do have a riddle for you; the reader. What is a “smart city?”

      I know, not a particularly fair question, but one that is going to be systematically addressed at the newly named GeoSmart India Conference (formerly India Geospatial Forum) on 1-3 March, 2016 in Greater Noida, on the outskirts of…
