“One of the major advantages of modern sensor technologies is being able to integrate data into BIM virtual design and add value throughout the process. Our whole thing at VIATechnik is enabling our clients to make high-quality, high-velocity decisions. That means making better decisions faster. You can’t guarantee you’re doing that without a good level of information which allows us to create what we call ‘data insights.’ Fundamentally, it’s a process built around understanding. You start from the questions that you need to answer, the insights you need to make come from there,” Danielle noted in our interview.
Our discussion covered:
- The multi-strand benefits of sensor technology.
- The role Supersensing plays in rapid, on-site decision-making.
- The need for practitioners to pre-empt and collectively address climate change.
- The power of integrating sensor solutions with BIM to produce actionable insights.
- Best-practice approaches for modern problem-solving.
