Part of a series managed through the Integrated Digital Built Environment Working Group ( IDBE-WG), a collaboration between OGC and Bsi, this workshop was initially proposed by the French Geological Survey (BRGM) and the MINnD project, the joint hosts of the event.

It aims to bring forward the topic of Geotechnical Data Standardization through rigorous discussion, drawing on broad representation across the geotechnical and geoscience community and building on the collaboration framework between OGC and bSI.

The workshop will be two-fold    

January 22nd and 23rd, 2019 : Plenary discussions

Engaging the geotechnical engineering community, the workshop will share knowledge and experience on geotechnical data standardization with the aim to design of an overview map of on-going activities to achieve better collaboration in the adoption of these new digitization technologies.

Needs and proposition of solutions will be discussed on two connected topics:

            1 – Interface between civil engineering and geotechnical engineering teams;

            2 – From Smart building and infrastructures to Smart Cities.

January 24th, 2019 : small committee to reach a MoU 

To build up on previous discussions, a smaller group will seek to reach a Memorandum of Understanding between OGC and bSI, engaging people and actions to follow the roadmap defined by the geotechnical community.
