Challenges:
User experience in Kampusareena challenge by KIRA-digi: Building information modeling (BIM) is widely in use for building design and construction but killer applications for use and maintenance are still rare. Help us to find the next big thing in BIM for UX or BIM for FM. Create innovative solutions that take the user experience of Kampusareena to the next level from either visitor or maintenance perspective. In the hackathon, the IFC models (architectural, structural and MEP) of Kampusareena are available in addition to the rich variety of cool tech. Prize: 1000€ gift card to Verkkokauppa.com
Digital cities challenge by PTA: Many cities are active in building 3D city models, and the National Land Survey is aiming to compose, step by step, a national database of 3D buildings of the whole country. However, questions about the benefits of these 3D city models have been raised. Help us to convince the sceptics how 3D data of cities can make everyday life more economic, environmentally friendly, rich in experience, or just more fun. Create smart solutions that apply 3D buildings data together with open data. In the hackathon, the 3D city model of Tampere is available in addition to the rich variety of open dataset from the city. Prize: 1000€ gift card to Verkkokauppa.com
Productivity challenge by Fira: For decades, the development of productivity has been poor in construction. The procedures have fallen behind the pace of digitalization, being stuck with using Excel-sheets and communicating via email. We believe that the construction industry and its procedures will face a radical change through digital evolution. We have gathered data on the challenges and bottlenecks that different co-operating parties face during a construction project, and we discovered vast opportunities to reinvent the industry through digital tools. Create out-of-the-box solutions that re-innovate closed procurement software. Our goal is to create an open field for different stakeholders to bring equality to bigger and smaller construction companies. Construction professionals are present for feedback and co-creation. Prize: 500€ gift card of your choice + opportunity to join Fira's Discovery Program
+ recurring AEC Hackathon challenges with surprise prizes (if applicable): 1. Best overall project - The project that really hits the mark on execution, utility, and technical merits. 2.
