A National Underground Asset Register: Delivering Value with Flexibility
-
Towards the end of your talk you cover the need for a compelling use case for data consumption to address the challenges associated with outbound API connection to NUAR. Is this an area you could see input from the DT Hub community assisting to define potential use cases for data consumption?

Hi @Tom Hughes. Regarding collaboration and relationships. As I said, stakeholder engagement has probably been the most important part of the project to date. My colleague @holgerkessler is the stakeholder engagement lead, and he maintains a huge and evolving plan to track who we need to talk to and engage with. Our delivery partners at the London Mayor’s Office and Ordnance Survey have also maintained close relationships with the asset owners in the pilot areas.
I don’t think there’s an easy answer to this – for us it’s been about prioritising engagement above almost anything else, and spending lots of time and effort on talking, listening and engaging with anyone and everyone with an interest in this area.
Forums like this are great in providing a focal point, and a place to discuss and share – any way to get a receptive audience in one place is very welcome!

Regarding outbound APIs @Tom Hughes – absolutely, we’re always open to thoughts and suggestions from this community, and would appreciate these insights.

Thanks @DRossiter87 for the comment on wayleaves and easements. Yes, we’re certainly looking at representing “Zones of Interest”, which could encompass rights of access, into the data model.

Members of the DT Hub community may not be aware that the NUAR project has been shortlisted for the 2020 Digital Leaders 100 list. The DL100 list is created by public vote and celebrates the teams and individuals who are working hard behind the scenes to secure the UK’s Digital Transformation.
You are able to vote for NUAR until noon on 28 August 2020.

Thanks @Steven. Yes, you make a very important point about the need for persistent and unique identifiers to support interoperability. There’s quite a wide variety in how assets are ID’d at source, and how we manage this is currently very high on my list.

Thank-you very much for your time today @Neil
We are now coming to the end of our live discussion, but we will keep this space open and available until the end of the day in case you have further thoughts or questions. We will continue to monitor the discussion during that time, but on a less frequent basis.
We will also add Neil’s video, along with the videos from previous talks, to this page: https://digitaltwinhub.co.uk/digital-twin-talks/
Looking ahead, our next Digital Twin Talk: Overcoming commercial barriers to the scaled adoption of digital twins by @Tom Henderson of Tech UK. We will post the video of Tom’s talk on Monday evening and Tom will join us for a live forum discussion on the 11th August between 10:30 and 11:30 am BST.
We are keen for as many people as possible to benefit from this excellent series of talks and discussions. Please share a link to the DT Hub with your contacts and let them know about the Twin Talks.
Thank you all very much again
