GEO Design+BIM 2018

Amsterdam: GEO| Design+BIM, a platform that highlights the use of geospatial data analytics and Building Information Modelling (BIM) in asset spatial design, construction, and operation and maintenance, is pleased to announce Esri as a Gold Sponsor. The event is scheduled to take place from 1-2 November 2018, in Amsterdam.

With the theme “Enabling Tomorrow’s Connected Infrastructure”, GEO| Design+BIM 2018 will delve further into the integration of geospatial technology and BIM, and other associated industry trends including big data analytics, IoT, drones, VR, robotics, cloud worksharing, city information modeling, digital twin, etc.

Esri, the global leader in location intelligence, recently announced its alliance with Autodesk to enhance BIM and GIS workflows integration. The integration aims to improve efficiency and collaboration for owner/operators, such as city and regional government planners and executives, and AEC firms who plan, design, and carry out capital projects.

“Combining location information during the design and construction phase brings context to all types of projects,” said Danny R. Spillmann, Director, Global Business Development, Natural Resources & AEC. “Our focus is to enable organizations to respond quickly to changing environments by improving workflows that integrate BIM and GIS information so that everyone can participate and engage throughout the project lifecycle.”

“We’re delighted to take this journey with Esri to foster our common objective of connecting geospatial community with AEC community, and highlight the value of geospatial integration in BIM workflow at GEO|Design+BIM. With continuous support from Esri, GEO|Design+BIM is developing as a mature platform for business users to network and collaborate,” adds Anamika Das, Vice President, Outreach and Business Development at Geospatial Media and Communications, the conference organizer.

About GEO|Design+BIM
GEO|Design+BIM is an exclusive event in Europe, highlighting and initiating discussions related to the use of geospatial data analytics and BIM in asset spatial design, construction, operation and maintenance. The event is a combination of two innovative platforms: GeoDesign Summit Europe and GeoBIM Europe, which were organized separately since 2013. Understanding the relevance and importance of bringing the geospatial analytics, spatial planning, architecture, engineering, construction and operation/maintenance professionals together on one platform, a combined effort was initiated in 2017, giving birth to this exciting integrated event.
