    The rapid increase in information availability is transforming the construction sector. Conventional methods used for sourcing geographic data based on maps and localised sampling meant that there was often a lack of accurate information relating to ground conditions at specific areas where work was planned, often resulting in unwelcome surprises for construction companies along with additional costs for projects.

    When a vital fiber-optic cable was cut during construction work in Germany, the impact was huge. There were telecom disruptions affecting the greater Frankfurt area, all departures and landings at Frankfurt Airport were suspended, and Lufthansa’s global IT system crashed. Leica Geosystems says it is vital to put in place “strategies to protect people, equipment, and assets… and to emphasise the crucial role digital solutions play in ensuring safety.”

    Transitioning to zero-carbon transport globally is essential to keep climate change in check. Yet seven years after the Paris Climate Agreement, transport emissions are still rising. In a new op-ed, Nina Elter argues that a radical shift in our approach to transportation sustainability is required. Every year, governments around the world invest more than US$700 billion in road infrastructure. While these investments yield significant economic and social returns, transport continues to generate large costs on societies, in the form of harmful emissions, traffic injuries and lost time due to congestion.
