A digital transformation has occurred in the architecture, engineering, construction (AEC), and facilities management (FM) sectors. Pen, measuring tape, paper, velum, and rulers are still being used in construction. But, new digital tools are available and will become mandatory for practitioners within these business sectors. Tools such as smartphone LiDAR devices, GIS combined with building information modeling (BIM) or GeoBIM solutions, remote sensing using drones and software to produce photogrammetry mapping, tablets or smartphones equipped with RTK antennae or GNSS mapping hardware can support survey collection of the as-installed state of infrastructure. These tools can also capture exposed utilities and are new methods used in today's workflow. Assigning risk in the digital world requires new tools to validate, produce, and collect asset information.
