At OpenSpace, we deliver solutions enabling builders large and small to benefit from cutting-edge technology like AI and passive photo documentation. Another area of technological innovation we’re excited about is the growing use of “digital twins,” or digital replicas of physical spaces and structures.

In this whitepaper, Frequency: The New Dimension for Digital Twins, we share the evolution of digital twins, their benefits to project teams, and how adding a third dimension to their creation and maintenance—frequency—can bring even greater utility to the teams that employ them. The technology is helping companies to achieve profound operational efficiencies and cost savings.

What’s inside?

Read this whitepaper to learn more about:

• The rise of digital twins in the construction industry
• The three main types of technologies that digital twins use: lidar point clouds, drone orthomosaics, and smartphone and 2D camera images
• How to assess digital twins’ effectiveness in terms of resolution and completeness
• The critical role of frequency in site documentation and the benefits of high frequency to project teams
• How NOVO Construction’s documentation and image mapping became 20X faster, with 100X more images captured, by using this technology
• Steps you can take to start leveraging the promise of high-frequency digital twins in your organization

Learn how digital twins can deliver immediate and long-term value to all stakeholders in a project, from construction field teams to facility managers and owners.

Healthcare construction has always been complex, with its unique physical constraints and specific protocols to ensure patient safety. And with the wide array of expensive equipment involved and the precision work requiring specialty contractors, it’s no surprise that healthcare projects can take up to twice as long as others to complete and cost up to twice as much per square foot.

But the global pandemic introduced even more challenges and complexity—and urgency—to healthcare construction projects. With fewer people allowed on jobsites, general contractors, construction management professionals, specialty contractors, and owners have faced new operational challenges to overcome in order to stay afloat and continue their important work.

OpenSpace’s whitepaper, The 5 Challenges of Building for Healthcare, offers actionable insights and strategies for addressing the current challenges we see in healthcare construction. This whitepaper will also help you understand how adopting innovative AI-based technology can help your business thrive.

What’s inside?

Read on for some essential scaffolding, and consider this your primer for future-proofing your business. You’ll learn more about:

• The complexity of keeping healthcare facilities operational during construction.
• The strict protocols you must follow to ensure patient safety.
• Ways to address the challenges of installing expensive equipment in tight spaces.
• New technology-enabled strategies for more effective team coordination.
• How AI can help you show real-time progress to project stakeholders.
