Episode 6 - Eirik Aasbakk

Eirik talks about how he’s helping the project owners to adopt BIM on their projects within the Norwegian Public Roads Administration (Statens Vegvesen). Lately, more of the Project Owners have started to require the information to be presented in dashboards, which is easy to do when you have BIM 3d-models. In a recent project, to engage the neighbors and the politicians they used ARCGIS online instead of the traditional way with documents and drawings that nobody reads. We also talk about using drones, Geo Radar, and Machine Learning to map the bedrock for roads. VDC, Modell Maturity Index (MMI), and many other interesting things. Eirik is a BIM-manager in the Division of Bigger Projects in Statens Vegvesen (Norwegian Public Road Administration). He is helping the various Project Owners to adopt and use BIM as much as possible. "For me, BIM is many things but the most important I think is structured information, and 3d geometry is one part of the information which lies in BIM objects. If you get this established, just have a lot of information in the geometry then we have a lot of possibilities.
