In this episode of the BimTube Podcast we speak with Malcolm Taylor, Specialist Advisor (Digital) at Crossrail International. He discussed the importance of quality, trustworthy information for decision-making on infrastructure engineering projects. Also, Malcolm reflects on how 'Project Information' becomes 'Asset Information' and the role that Common Data Environments (CDEs), Geographic Information Systems (GIS), 'BIM' and ISO 19650 series play to help manage this critical process.
