Description
Nick Speal, a software engineer at 3DR, will explain the technology behind Site Scan, discuss the challenges and opportunities in creating software for AEC, and show how the new BIM 360 Forge APIs are helping 3DR customers keep data in sync across their team. For those who are looking to bring new technologies on-site and take advantage of reality capture data, this will be an insightful session on how drones came to take the industry by storm-and where they're going next.
Key Learnings
- Understand how aerial images are transformed into orthomosaics, meshes, and models using the Reality Capture API
- Understand how deviations between as-built and as-planned are analyzed using the Design Automation API
- Understand how deviations and rework requests are automatically communicated using the BIM 360 API
- Understand how to share site progress in 3D using the LMV API
Speakers
- NSNick SpealNick Speal joined 3D Robotics as an engineering project manager after graduating with his degree in robotics from McGill University. Under his project management leadership, 3DR shipped Solo, the first consumer drone to be sold through major retail outlets, to tens of thousands of happy customers. After spending two years wrangling engineers, he decided to become one himself and is currently serving as a software engineer on the frontend web team where he is continuously building delightful features for Site Scan customers.
- Andy LeekI am responsible for strategic planning, enterprise implementations, and innovation. My tenure at PARIC has focused on developing a proactive strategy to integrate cloud-based tools and processes that enable extended project teams to be more collaborative and efficient. The convergence of AEC technology and a variety of industry experience has enabled me to lead a proactive VDC team with a focus on design, controls, big data, and field innovations. By developing several collaborative partnerships with various technology providers to influence the development of new tools and processes I have enabled integrated preconstruction activities, including model-based QTO and cloud-based estimating, scheduling, along with reality capture tools such as aerial scanning and 360 time-lapse photos, to improve project/data management and information sharing. My highly integrated approach to technology has enabled PARIC to grow our use of technology rapidly, with confidence and accuracy.
