Hexagon presents simple solutions for construction at ConExpo 2020

HEERBRUGG, Switzerland and TUCSON, Ariz., USA (9 March 2020) — Hexagon’s Geosystems and Mining divisions are presenting an extensive portfolio construction technology solutions at ConExpo, the top show for construction professionals, taking place in Las Vegas, USA, from 10-14  March 2020.

Hexagon’s Geosystems and Mining divisions are presenting an extensive portfolio construction technology solutions at ConExpo.

With a theme of Dirt. Simple. Construction., Hexagon will be announcing several new solutions of simple-to-use technologies, seamless workflows and collaborative deployments that will be shown at its booth in North Hall, Booth #N-12166.

“Every construction project is unique and requires reliable solutions that provide seamless integration of hardware and software, simple to install in the field, precise, versatile, and flexible in adapting to any project’s requirements and equipment portfolio,” said Johan Arnberg, heavy construction portfolio president for Hexagon’s Geosystems division. “With an exceptional wide-range of innovative construction solutions, we are focused and dedicated to providing technology with the construction professional in mind so that projects can be completed on time, on spec and within budget.”

Visit Hexagon’s booth to learn more about:
•    How Hexagon’s innovative construction technologies are easy to use, easy to adopt and enable construction professionals to easily remain in control of their projects and sites.
•    How heavy construction contractors are achieving transparent data flow on the jobsite, connecting project managers, construction surveyors, site foremen, machine operators and data preparation specialists
•    How Hexagon’s construction solutions focus on functional design, data integrity and accuracy, open formats, cloud-based data exchange and storage, and further support in construction advisement and consulting
•    How edge computing combined with computer vision AI (artificial intelligence) is helping to combat operator fatigue and distraction, one of the leading causes of accidents in the mining industry
•    How a web-based reporting and analytics platform can enable full heavy- and light-vehicle monitoring within a proven intervention framework, while continuously assessing in real time the fatigue and distraction risks of individual operators throughout the mine

“Operator fatigue, distraction and pedestrian awareness continue to be issues for mining and other industries,” said Safety Portfolio Manager for Hexagon’s Mining division, Marcos Bayuelo. “By integrating proven systems for operator alertness and collision avoidance with data intelligence and actionable workflows we can help ensure that everyone gets home safety. Hexagon, like its customers, is serious about safety.”
