Abstract
The rapid development of sensing technology and data analytics presents exciting new opportunities across a range of engineering disciplines. The aerospace and automotive industries are already well known for their early adoption of these technologies, but uptake in the infrastructure and construction industries has been slower. That is now starting to change, and the Cambridge Centre for Smart Infrastructure and Construction (CSIC) has been leading in implementing these solutions. Jennifer Schooling, Director of CSIC , will outline some of the exciting deployments on major infrastructure projects including Crossrail, Network Rail and the National Grid power tunnels, and how these new approaches are revolutionising the way we design, deliver and manage our assets.
