Abstract:
Comprehensive evaluation of dams in a dynamic and proactive way is accepted as an effective strategy to improve dam safety. However, there is a lack of efficient and standardised approaches for managing monitoring-related information that can help to provide dynamic and reliable information for continuous dam evaluation. With the importance of digital twins (DTs) being proven in better data integration and interoperability, a DT-based approach for comprehensive dam evaluation and its data integration method based on extended industry foundation classes (IFC) are provided in this study. This paper presents a new data structure and corresponding data classification strategy, using which information required for continuous evaluation can be effectively organised.
