Join Rajat Gangrade, Co-founder of Ground Up, as we explore digital transformation in tunnelling and geotechnics. Rajat outlines the digital-first project lifecycle, from data digitisation and digital twins to real-time construction monitoring. He assesses North America's low digital maturity and details the critical problem of underutilised geotechnical data. Discover how smarter data management and visualising uncertainty improve project outcomes. Rajat discusses automation's efficiency versus inertia in delivering projects. He suggests the industry isn't AI ready for complex tasks, suggesting initial routine automation, with Agentic AI as the future for unique projects. Rajat shares Ground Up's aim to streamline geotechnical data analysis via a cloud platform. Expect accelerated adoption of digital twins, and cloud collaboration, powered by growing digital literacy in the next decade.
