Bentley collaboration with Google aims to improve digital replicas of physical infrastructure
In a groundbreaking move, Bentley Systems has partnered with Google to improve the design, construction, and operation of infrastructure. This collaboration, which was previously established, aims to deliver AI-driven insights for asset analytics.
Bentley software users can now leverage Google Maps Platform's geospatial content, including Google's Photorealistic 3D Tiles, for a real-world geospatial context and immersive 3D experiences. Cesium, the creator of the 3D Tiles open standard used by Google, is a key component of this partnership.
Nicholas Cumins, CEO at Bentley, emphasized the potential for improved infrastructure resilience and sustainability through this partnership with Google. The integration of Google's geospatial content with Bentley's digital twin platform is expected to provide valuable insights throughout the infrastructure lifecycle.
Digital twins, as a digital representation of the physical world, offer value and insights throughout the infrastructure lifecycle. Google's Photorealistic 3D Tiles are highlighted as a key component for immersive experiences and workflow transformations in infrastructure design, construction, and operation.
Chris Phillips, the vice president and general manager of Geo at Google, expressed excitement about the partnership and its potential benefits. He noted that the collaboration complements Bentley's recent acquisition of Cesium.
The partnership between Bentley and Google further demonstrates the power and utility of the 3D Tiles open standard in infrastructure engineering. The collaboration aims to integrate Google's geospatial content with Bentley's infrastructure engineering software and digital twin platform, enhancing workflows for architects, engineers, and urban planners.
In addition, Bentley is collaborating with Google Cloud to deliver AI-driven insights for asset analytics. This collaboration between Bentley and Google Cloud focuses on delivering AI-driven insights for asset analytics, which could lead to more efficient and sustainable infrastructure solutions.
This partnership is a significant step forward in the field of infrastructure engineering, promising to revolutionize the way we design, construct, and operate our infrastructure. With the combined power of Bentley's digital twin platform and Google's geospatial content, we can expect to see improvements in infrastructure resilience, sustainability, and overall efficiency.
