Abstract

Building activities are inadequately monitored during construction projects when attempting to satisfy the need for information, especially in those cases of unforeseen events and conditions on-site. Many IT-supported methods have been introduced, but so far none has been able to deliver satisfactory and reliable information. This paper presents a combined method, consisting of three components: an automated activity tracking subsystem based on image recognition, an automated material tracking subsystem, and a mobile computing supported communication environment. All subsystems are based on the same 4D model of a building.
