Applying GIS and Geospatial Measurement Technologies in Construction Data Management in Vietnam: A Case Study of Hanoi University of Civil Engineering’s Campus

Abstract

Construction projects generally comprise three fundamental phases: design, implementation, and operation, which encompass a wide range of data types. Construction data encompasses a variety of documents, including topographic surveys, planning and design records, construction reports, and as-built documentation. In Vietnam, the development of Building Information Modeling (BIM) offers promise for managing design and construction data. However, challenges persist in effectively managing and sharing attribute data throughout a construction project's entire lifecycle. This study presents a solution that integrates Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to establish and facilitate the efficient sharing of building data information among pertinent stakeholders. The research has implemented a data system for the H3 lecture hall at Hanoi University of Civil Engineering's campus, encompassing a 3D map database of the entire area, 3D design model data, and associated attribute data. The management of building data for construction projects entails the establishment of geospatial data processing procedures, attribute data systems, and the development of 3D model solutions using the ArcGIS Pro platform. The data is presented and shared through the ArcGIS Online platform, resulting in the creation of a web map designed to enhance the effective management and sharing of construction data.
