ArcGIS GeoBIM Reimagine the Future of InfrastructureFriday, July 23rd, 2021Recently, Bentley Systems presented a webinar entitled, “Using the Power of Digital Twins to Reimagine the Future of Infrastructure” at the EFCG Tech Leadership Conference online. Presenters Steve Cockerell, Industry Marketing Director, Transportation, and Kat Flesh, Senior Director Transportation, both of Bentley Systems, spoke on their findings from working with some of Bentley’s most visionary users.  Kat Flesh, Bentley Senior Director Transportation They provided an update on what has been achieved so far, and what is being planned by owners and supply chains of assets that support nearly every aspect of our lives today. For example, roads, rail and transit, bridges, water systems, and smart cities. Cockerell and Flesh also explored the innovative ideas that are shaping the infrastructure business for a better tomorrow.  Steve Cockerell, Bentley Industry Marketing Director, Transportation “Population growth rates vary across different regions, but we’re still talking about 2 billion additional people on the planet in the next 20 to 30 years,” Cockerell said. “The United Nations predicts that the future of the world’s population is urban. Today, over 55% of the world’s population live in urban areas, but by the middle of the century that number will go up to 68%. In America, the number is already 80%, and I think this will place a huge strain on our infrastructure assets. Most of the impact will be on our roads and railways as these networks are the only way to keep our cities and countries moving.” Dodge Data Analytics Smart Market Report: Digital Capabilities of US Water Utilities with Gregg HerrinFriday, April 9th, 2021Digital twins can play a role providing accurate, reliable data – fit-for-purpose and useful across the water infrastructure lifecycle.
