With Digital Delivery gaining momentum in AEC and transportation, I’m trying to better understand the role GIS plays when 3D models become the legal source of truth.
Projects like I-66 Outside the Beltway in Virginia show how BIM, GIS, LiDAR, drone data, and digital twins are beginning to converge in infrastructure delivery.
For those working with Esri tools: How are you seeing GIS integrated into model-based highway or infrastructure projects? Is GIS mainly supporting visualization, ROW context, utility mapping, and asset management, or is it becoming part of the contractual/project delivery workflow itself?
Would love to hear examples, lessons learned, or best practices from transportation, DOT, utility, or large infrastructure projects.
