Cambridge Centre for Smart Infrastructure and Construction

Transforming infrastructure through smarter information
 

Background
The UK infrastructure sector faces the daunting challenge of maintaining and modernising an ageing infrastructure asset stock. A major stumbling block to the embedding of sustainable infrastructure asset management principles has for many years been the lack, or poor quality, of infrastructure asset data. Both location and condition data are important and real-time data is required to inform proactive planning and maintenance regimes.

 

New innovations in real-time monitoring and coordinated provision of hazard data are helping to bridge this gap in knowledge.

•showcase emerging techniques and technologies to capture and manage infrastructure asset location and condition data •give examples of how data can be managed to inform sustainable infrastructure asset management •present emerging initiatives by public sector mapping agencies to provide coordinated hazard data to infrastructure clients
