TOPCON Positioning Systems has launched its new Aptix integration platform to optimise how heavy civil construction projects are managed.
The firm explained that Aptix integrates Topcon solutions with multiple third party applications to ‘automate and orchestrate’ data connections between the office and job site.
It is designed to streamline processes and generate insights for construction teams within one platform.
Aptix provides real-time reports on people, materials, machines, and carbon dioxide emissions.
Topcon added that one of the key differentiating features of Aptix is its ability to automate the distribution of constructible models and scheduled task changes. The technology integrates with applications including Autodesk Construction Cloud and Microsoft OneDrive. Through these integrations and others, Aptix monitors file updates, and as soon as a constructible model or schedule change occurs, it automatically distributes these updates to key stakeholders.
“Without up-to-date, accessible, and actionable information, construction teams will always struggle to communicate and collaborate,” said James Cook, director, partner integrations at Autodesk Construction Solutions. “With Aptix’s integration of Autodesk Construction Cloud, teams can ensure critical information is accessible to all the stakeholders that need it, helping companies more easily build and collaborate.”
Jason Hallett, VP and general manager, Topcon Integration Services, added, “By automating previously manual processes, Aptix eliminates time-consuming and error-prone data entry, allowing construction professionals to focus on more strategic tasks. Project managers can make better, more informed decisions by having real-time visibility into project progress and potential roadblocks.”
