Speed of change!
Mario Andretti said famously: “If everything seems under control, you’re not going fast enough”.
Seems quite apt!

CyArk - Preserving our heritage in 3D
Check out the great work that CyArk are doing to preserve our most endangered sites using terrestrial LiDAR (aka 3D Laser Scanning, aka High Definition Survey) technologies to provide 3D survey data.

Tocci Quoted in Morrell's Report
Pleased to see John Tocci Snr quoted in Paul Morrell's Innovation & Growth Team report :
“When we have the means of modeling a building in three dimensions digitally, it is perverse to attempt to do so for the first time for real, under site conditions. As John Tocci, an American contractor who makes invariable use of BIM (whether or not the design comes to him in that form) puts it, “Every good building deserves to get built twice”.
John Tocci (Snr) is for me blazing the VDC trail, keep going John!!!
Good to see BIM being mentioned positively several times in the report, looks like any Government manadate will be the lightest of touches (public projects £50M+??). Still it is up to us in the private sector to demonstrate the value proposition for VDC (and i'm sure we will)

A.U. 2010
Confession time, I have just lost my A.U. virginity (Las Vegas 2010)!
What a fantastic couple of days, it is great to see the thinking going "Beyond BIM" T.M.
Not only was the conversation erudite: BIM to FIM (well done to Brad Hardin), IPD - becoming the norm but the tecnologies supporting our journey have really matured especially the emersive technologies.
