Construction Becomes a Data Business
How digital twins, IoT, GIS + BIM, prefabrication and more are changing design and construction. Today's designers and contractors are delivering faster, better projects by analyzing their data.
Keynote Speaker:
ENR Midwest Editor and Associate Technology Editor Jeff Yoders has been writing about design and construction innovations for 20 years. He is a two-time Jesse H. Neal award winner and multiple ASBPE winner for his tech coverage. Jeff previously launched Building Design + Construction's building information modeling blog and wrote a geographic information systems column at CE News. He also wrote about materials prices, construction procurement and estimation for MetalMiner.com. He lives in Chicago, the birthplace of the skyscraper, where the pace of innovation never leaves him without a story to chase.
