Abstract:Today, information technologies (IT) are used in almost every production industry. While the aspects of IT are well studied and discussed in relevant monographs, articles, web sources, etc., this paper reviews the performance improvement options in the construction industry by leveraging IT. From a wide range of information technologies the author has picked the most relevant solutions, from his point of view, based on several considerations, the most important one being the lack of adequate attention to these… Show more
“…Such data automatically can be transferred via VSAT technology. These data, along with others, can be used for intelligent data processing (for example, may be used the technology Big Data [4][5][6][7]).…”
Wireless technology such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and other are used in many areas of the economy [1-3]. Experts know the advantages and disadvantages of wireless technology. The advantages include the fact that, firstly, the mobile work of employees is ensured, and secondly, wireless control of technical and household appliances and technological processes is possible. The disadvantages of technology include the fact that the proper level of information security is not always ensured. In addition, when using this technology should be done difficult work associated with determining the possible impact of other wireless networks, as well as different types of electromagnetic fields. In the field of construction, wireless solutions are associated with the projects “Smart Home” and “Smart City”. Meanwhile, with the help of wireless technologies, other solutions are possible to improve the efficiency of work in the construction industry. The purpose of this work is to consider such solutions, to study the possibility of their application in the construction industry and to develop practical conclusions and recommendations based on this research.

“…It should be noted that of all the methods used in technology Data Mining and Big Data, cluster analysis is especially useful for the construction area. We can formulate the obvious conclusion: Big Data technology has very good prospects for the construction industry [1][2][3][4]. Accordingly, the role of the Data Warehouse in the field of construction has increased.…”
Today, in information technologies, the direction associated with the use of Data Warehouse (DW) is evolving very dynamically. Using DW, it is possible to implement two types of data analysis: OLAP-analysis: a set of technologies for the rapid processing of data presented as a multidimensional cube; Data Mining is an intelligent, deep analysis of data to detect previously unknown, practically useful patterns (in our case, the construction area). It is noted, that of all the methods used in technology Data Mining, cluster analysis is especially useful for the construction area. At present, the role of DW has increased, significantly due to the fact, that many methods and approaches of Data Mining have formed the basis of a new, promising method of Big Data. We will specify that, that Data processing from the Data Warehouse with the help of technology Big Data, allows to deduce researches in a building area to the higher level. The purpose of this work is to research of the possibilities of application of the Data Warehouse in the construction area. The article suggests the new approach to data analysis in the construction area, based on the use of Big Data technology and elements of OLAP - analysis. In the section “Discussion” is considering the possibility of the new promising business in the construction field, based on the application of Data Warehouse and technology Big Data.
Satellite technologies are successfully used in many areas of the economy, allowing you to solve problems that cannot be solved by other methods. The paper explores the possibility of using satellite technologies for monitoring buildings and structures located in remote areas where satellite technologies are the main type of communication (other types of communication are either impossible or economically inexpedient). It is shown that the most rational solution of the tasks set is the use of VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) satellite technology. This technology allows you to deploy a satellite terminal in a short time, to establish communication and transfer data on the state of construction objects to a computer center located at a very large distance from the specified objects. A scheme for monitoring buildings is presented, including a geostationary artificial earth satellite, satellite terminals deployed at remote construction sites, the NOC (Communications control center, Network operations center) and the monitoring Center for all construction sites. The satellite is connected to subscriber terminals using a direct and reverse channel. Data from the NOC is transmitted to the monitoring Center via the Internet through a secure VPN connection. It is noted that the use of certain technical improvements in satellite technology directly depends on economic factors. It is indicated that the monitoring Center of all construction objects receives information on the state not only from remote, but also “ordinary” buildings and structures. It is noted that for efficient information processing it is necessary to use cloud computing, modern intellectual technologies, for large-scale tasks it is most promising to use Big Data technology.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
