How can you minimize errors and omissions in construction drawings?
As said by others Building Information Modelling (BIM) software can significantly help minimize errors. Virtual Reality applications integrated to a Common Data Environment like BIM360 allow many stakeholders to walk the model and provide feedback in the same model well ahead of construction. This reduces and eliminates issues later, enhances coordination among various project stakeholders earlier.

Reality Capture - A Digital Twin Foundation
Digital Twin Consortium
This paper introduces the fundamentals of reality capture as a critical component to the lifecycle
of a digital twin. Reality-capture technology embodies a set of devices and processes that collect
conditions of a physical object or space. When implemented and managed correctly, these tools
accurately and efficiently create digital duplicates of physical things, such as small objects, rooms,
buildings or planetary landscapes. The essence of reality capture is to provide insight…This paper introduces the fundamentals of reality capture as a critical component to the lifecycle
of a digital twin. Reality-capture technology embodies a set of devices and processes that collect
conditions of a physical object or space. When implemented and managed correctly, these tools
accurately and efficiently create digital duplicates of physical things, such as small objects, rooms,
buildings or planetary landscapes. The essence of reality capture is to provide insight and
awareness through the faithful and transparent representation of real-world conditions.
The reader should expect to take away an understanding of reality-capture devices, their
applications, and knowledge of key industries where reality capture has specific considerations.Other authorsSee publication
