We would avail the opportunity to learn from guest speakers from CanBIM that how they are implementing BIM in Canada. We will also learn that how BIM Africa made it’s way to implement BIM in their region.

BIM & GIS
BIM technologies and workflows are critical for intelligent infrastructure design and development, leading to many regions across the globe mandating its use. With the acceleration in urbanization, resilient infrastructure is imperative to increase the quality of life of the communities and populations they serve. With BIM providing the digital representation of an asset, integrating GIS provides further insight required for infrastructure delivery. This session will be looking at how Autodesk BIM Technologies & GIS, as well as Reality Capture & IoT, has been used on projects for resilient, sustainable infrastructure.
