Enhancing water supply asset mapping through Scan-BIM

AI Summary

Scan-Building Information Modelling (Scan-BIM) offers a solution to the challenges of managing aging water infrastructure. By combining 3D scanning (laser scanning and photogrammetry) with BIM platforms, Scan-BIM creates precise digital representations of physical assets. This technology enables more effective maintenance, optimized planning, and reduced service interruptions. The Sabah state government, with its extensive water network, is particularly interested in this technology for managing its numerous water treatment plants, pipelines, and other assets.
