Real-Time Position Measurement Integrated with CAD-CAE and Related Data Structure Issues

by Yvan J. Beliveau, VA Tech, Blacksburg, United States,
Eric J. Lundberg, VA Tech, Blacksburg, United States,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Computing in Civil and Building Engineering

Abstract:

The Civil Engineering Research Foundation (CERF), Bechtel Corp. (Bechtel), Jacobus Technology, Inc (Jacobus), and Spatial Positioning Systems,Inc. (SPSi) have formed the Consortium for Advanced Positioning Systems (CAPS). This consortium is dedicated to construction productivity improvement through the integration of new real-time position measurement technology with CADCAE. This paper provides background to the consortium and presents the issue of data-structure which is critical to reaching the ultimate potential of this integration.
