Construction project progress monitoring and structural dimensional compliance control are essential to allow decision makers to identify discrepancies between the planned and the as-built states of a project, and take timely measures where required. In practice, monitoring is performed manually, a time consuming, error-prone and labour intensive task, particularly in large scale projects. To reduce the time and cost of manual monitoring, limited onsite data is collected, restricting the project management team to identify the causes of delays, cost overruns, and rework on time. On average, the direct cost of rework is 5% of the total construction cost, mainly caused by errors during construction. In addition, the correct determination of the project's performance relies heavily on the accuracy of the collected data during the monitoring process. Currently, site supervisory personnel spend 30-50% of their time just to manually inspect and control the quality of the manually accumulated onsite data. To improve the quality of the collected data, current research has aimed to use remote sensing technologies such as LiDAR and cameras to acquire 3D point clouds of the construction element; however, recent research studies use the planned model as a priori knowledge to assign the accumulated point clouds to their corresponding structural element, which provide inaccurate results when the planned and the actual differ and /or the planned model is not available with sufficient detail. Therefore, in the PI's previous work as a part of the NSERC Discovery grant, an automated as-built model generation system, independent from the details of the planned model, was developed. Although this system addresses some of the main limitations of the current literature, three main concerns must be solved in order to provide a comprehensive solution to automating the monitoring and control process: 1) automatic real-time data acquisition; 2) stochastic prediction of project outcomes and decision support solution to meet project constraints; and 3) holographic visualisation of the project outcomes and data validity control. This proposal expects to overcome these limitations through the design and implementation of three interrelated projects. This research program aligns with the “New Earth Space Technologies” research strategy of the University of Calgary launched in October 2016, specifically targeting 1 of 5 identified research challenges, the Geospatial Communication. The efficient implementation of this system can benefit the construction industry by: 1) improving the time, cost and quality of data collection and analysis; 2) timely identification of rework and delays; and 3) minimizing construction claims and disputes.

施工项目进度监控和结构尺寸合规性控制对于决策者识别项目计划与竣工状态之间的差异并根据需要及时采取措施至关重要。在实践中，监控是手动执行的，这是一项耗时且耗时的工作。容易出错且劳动密集型的任务，特别是在大型项目中，为了减少手动监控的时间和成本，收集的现场数据有限，限制了项目管理团队确定延误、成本超支和按时返工的原因。平均而言，直接返工成本占总施工成本的5%，主要是施工过程中的错误造成的。此外，项目绩效的正确判定很大程度上依赖于监测过程中收集的数据的准确性。目前，现场监理人员花费了30%。 -50% 的时间只是用于手动检查和控制手动积累的现场数据的质量。为了提高收集数据的质量，当前的研究旨在使用激光雷达和相机等遥感技术来获取 3D 点云。建筑元素；然而，最近的研究使用计划模型作为先验知识将累积的点云分配给其相应的结构元素，当计划和实际不同和/或计划模型没有足够的细节时，这会提供不准确的结果。 ，在 PI 之前的工作中，作为 NSERC 发现资助的一部分，开发了一个独立于计划模型细节的自动化竣工模型生成系统，尽管该系统解决了当前文献的一些主要局限性，为了提供一个自动化监控过程的综合解决方案：1）自动实时数据采集；2）项目结果的随机预测和决策支持解决方案以满足项目约束；3）项目结果的全息可视化和数据有效性控制。该提案预计通过设计和实施三个相互关联的项目来克服这些限制。该研究计划与卡尔加里大学于 2016 年 10 月启动的“新地球空间技术”研究战略相一致，专门针对 5 项已确定研究中的 1 项。地理空间通信的高效实施可以通过以下方式使建筑行业受益：1) 缩短数据收集和分析的时间、成本和质量；2) 及时识别返工和延误；3) 最大限度地减少施工索赔和延误。纠纷。
