Session 2.2
A Practical Introduction to Big Data for Construction and Operations
Synopsis:
Who cares about data? You should, if you are part of a forward-thinking Construction or Operations firm!
Find out how to capture, structure and analyse project data in practical ways.
Learning Objectives:
1. What is a relational data schema?
2. How can you conceptualise the data sources on your project?
3. What is the difference between unfocused and selective analysis of your BIM data?
Body:
An increasing number of Construction and Operations companies are seeking to unlock the embedded value in their project data repositories.
But Excel is not enough. Excel syncing with Revit is not enough…
What does a project data schema look like?
What are the advantages of a relational system?
What is object relational mapping?
How does this all apply to Revit, BIM, model quantification, automated auditing, FM data handover, and ongoing data capture?
I will seek to cover all this and more as I describe my personal journey from the 3D Model to Federated Project Data Management.
