Digital Informatics, Visualisation and Virtual Reality in the Built Environment delves into the intersection of human interaction, digital information, and the architectural landscape. It thoroughly examines the instruments and methodologies vital to sustainable construction management and urban planning. The book provides a detailed look at how digital informatics equips professionals to make informed decisions. Moreover, it includes practical examples, such as a virtual tunnel boring machine that uses real-time data for training and monitoring, risk assessments for modular construction in a gaming environment, and big data and GIS analytics to understand urban challenges.
This comprehensive guide also showcases the use of advanced technology to address issues like urban waste management, bushfire impacts, and pandemic responses. Readers will find valuable insights into the application of digital tools in the built environment, highlighting the transformative potential of integrating informatics with traditional practices. The book is an essential resource for those looking to leverage digital innovations to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of urban development projects.
