In construction , we focus on connecting the digital and physical world between the information that comes from BIM ( Building Information Modelling ) or CAD ( Computer Aided Design ) and then taking that out to the fields where elements of a build can be installed precisely ,” explains Matt Wheelis , Global Business Development Director at Leica Geosystems ( a part of Hexagon group ).
Leica ’ s products can run equipment such as bulldozers , drilling machines or motor graders in a precise way to shape the earth . “ We ’ re also able to capture what has been previously done in the field , along with existing conditions , and bring that into the digital space in combination with our solutions for tasks such as laser scanning or reality capture ,” adds Wheelis . “ We aim to make these kinds of solutions as available to the industry as possible by delivering easy to use solutions that features workflows tailored for construction .”
