The Power of Where the construction industry and clients want location based data

‘The Power of Where’ - construction industry clients now want location-based data, with National Highways alone equating the value of its data at £80bn, says Mark Lawton Head of Engineering Survey at Tier 1 contractor Skanska.

Peter Haddock caught up with Mark at Digital Construction Week to find out what is happening in the geospatial world and beyond.

In this video, Mark talks about how clients are asking for more data on projects, not just for the construction but also for the maintenance of assets.

Mark also explains how Skanska uses a ‘Digital Triangle’ to deliver projects.

He also explains his ‘Lasagna’ analogy regarding layers of location-based data collection and how this will play an increasingly important role for clients moving forward.
