[Editor] In this contributed article, Gary describes the justification for using BIM for geotechnical data.

Its great to see this posted on your website. At Terracon we are serious about bringing a stronger understanding of the incredible need for thorough and proper Geotechnical Site Characterization for any geotechnical or foundation project.
This video exposes the tremendous value of “looking into the past”, and recycling our data. As we have examined the possibilities of this, we have become quite excited about the possibilities. (stay tuned!)
