BIM and 3D GIS Integration for Digital Twins: An Introduction (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781032893785)

Mohsen Kalantari is an Associate Professor of Geospatial Engineering at the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering and a Co-Founder of the Scan-to-BIM technology start-up Faramoon. His research interests are land administration, 3D GIS and BIM. He previously worked for the Department of Infrastructure Engineering at the University of Melbourne. Before his academic career, he worked with the surveying and spatial industry as the Victorian coordinator of a nationwide land and survey information modernisation initiative, ePlan, in Australia.

Christian Clemen is a full Professor for "BIM and surveying" at the School of Geospatial Information, University of Applied Sciences Dresden, Germany (HTWD). He previously worked as a trained surveying technician in an engineering office, researcher at the Technical University of Berlin, received his PhD and worked as a software developer for GNSS real-time systems. In addition to teaching, Christian Clemen is actively involved in standardization (DIN/CEN/ISO/buildingSMART). For over two decades, he has been engaged in the 3D-information-modelling of buildings and the semantic integration of the AEC and geospatial domains, always from the perspective of surveying practice.

Mojgan Jadidi is an Associate Professor of Civil Engineering at Lassonde School of Engineering, York University, Canada. Her research interests include Development of Digital Twins by integrating Building Information Model (BIM), GIS, and sensors data, Geospatial Visual Analytics, Spatial Quantum Computing for the applications of Smart Environmental/Building/Infrastructure/Cities. She founded Geospatial Visual Analytics (GeoVA) Lab where she passionately drives the research in cutting edge technology development for a safer and resilient built environment. She also connects her technical expertise to classrooms, providing an immersive learning experience using virtual and augmented reality and gamification technologies in engineering education.
