- Abstract:
This paper provides an overview of wireless technologies, communication mechanisms, research and development in the field, and reviews the advantages that mobile IT provides to collaborative engineering and construction activities. It then discusses visualisation, research and practical applications developed for different construction problems. The possibility for a communication system transferring visual data using mobile technologies is explored and three scenarios are suggested. Finally, as a case study, the applicability of the proposed scenarios to the Turkish construction industry is investigated. Conclusions are then drawn on the benefits of integrating visualisation and mobile communication technologies in the construction industry.
