In this exclusive episode of the Infrastructure Podcast, host Anthony Oliver sits down with Ivan Di Federico, President and CEO of Topcon Positioning Systems, to discuss the massive digital transformation underway in construction and agriculture.
This is the second topic of the World Highways Roundtable series of discussions. We asked three leading experts on machine control technology - from Leica Geosystems, Topcon and Trimble - to tell us how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected working practices on site over the past two years. How has the crisis helped to encourage the adoption of new ideas? Have things speeded up, or slowed down? Let's hear what our key opinion leaders had to say.
Michael Gomes, vice president of sustainability and corporate social responsibility at Topcon, talks to Mike Woof, editor of World Highways magazine, about the use of technology to deliver sustainability in road construction.
Leica Geosystems has established a partnership with Junttan, the Finnish manufacturer of hydraulic piling equipment. The two firms are now working to accelerate the digital transformation of the piling sector.
