A Glimpse into the Future of Geospatial Technology Integrating BIM, CAD and GIS

Convergence is occurring in the design, engineering, product development, construction, and geospatial disciplines. The goal is to ensure that everyone working on a project has a seamless flow of design information. The business drivers for this technological advance are productivity and efficiency in the construction and facilities management industry and improving the performance of facilities over their full life-cycle.

The integration of model-driven design, building information modeling (BIM), 3D visualization, CAD, geospatially-enabled relational database management systems (RDBMS), and other geospatial technology has important implications for emergency planning and response, urban planning and infrastructure management. Attend this presentation, learn about the implications of convergence and glimpse into the future via a conceptual demonstration.
