Abstract

This research project focuses on the impact of lacking spatial information in the execution phase of Dutch infrastructure projects. In this research project, spatial information is defined as a combination of geometric and geographic object related information. Three construction projects have been examined through case studies and depth interviews with construction planners. As an answer to the research question, people seem to be the key. The greatest advancements on the issue of lacking spatial information currently seem to lie in the management of human errors.
