  2. 3 Background Accurate location information of facilities and areas of

    excavations lead to pre-verification and recognition of hazards during constructions, realizing a safe and secure life for Tokyo residents. High accuracy of location identification using high-precision 3D skeletal spatial information is needed. ◼ Location information of underground buried objects (positional relationships) is not accurately known. ◼ If a construction is carried out based on ambiguous location information, accidents may occur. ◼ On underground, there are buried materials owned by various managers (both public and private sectors). Sophistication of buried object management operations by increasing the accuracy of locating detection is necessary.
  3. 4 Goal and Overview Overview ◼ Location information of underground

    buried objects owned by public or private sectors, which includes water, sewage, electric power, gas, and telecommunications facilities, were identified and corrected. ◼ The high-precision 3D models were created, by using high-precision 3D skeletal spatial information of facility drawings of underground buried objects. ◼ Using an array-type-radar-equipped survey equipment, the location of underground facilities were measured onsite. The accuracy of the 3D models created based on the drawings and those created by the measurements was compared. ◼ The improvement of the owners’ business operation, such as inquiries and negotiations, were verified by using the high-precision 3D models. Goal ◼ Realizing a safe, secure, and comfortable life by ➢ improving the efficiency of the management of underground buried objects ➢ reducing the amount of equipment accidents during underground construction through the advancement of business operation.
  4. 6 Area The North Exit area of JR Kinshicho Sta.

    was selected as demonstration area (c)INCREMENT P CORPORATION License number PL1702 Unauthorized reproduction of map data for purposes other than those stipulated is prohibited. Demonstration area The demonstration area was determined based on the status of buried structures maintenance.
  5. 7 Area Area Reasons for selection The North Exit area

    of JR Kinshicho Sta. The conditions required for demonstration are satisfied ◼ Kinshicho has a good GPS environment with no tall buildings in the vicinity ◼ Excellent flatness of the area, making it relatively easy to search for buried objects ◼ The sidewalks are wide enough to ensure safety during measurements ◼ The grid of roads makes it easy to determine the status of facilities laid out. The area has both of old and new equipments ◼ In order to verify differences between drawings and measurements, areas where differences between the two may be exist are desirable. ◼ Kinshicho is a mix of redeveloped and undeveloped areas, with a mixture of old and new facilities The existence of the private sectors’ data of underground buried objects data is already proved ◼ Prior negotiation with telecommunications, electric power, and gas company representatives confirms the existence of data. Kinshicho area meets the necessary conditions for the demonstration, e.g. GPS environment and flatness.
  6. 8 <Appendix> Height of Buildings and GPS Open sky environment

    is necessary in terms of ensuring GPS accuracy. (1)Intentional Accuracy Reduction by the U.S. Government = SA(Selective Availability) *Lifted in May 2000 (2) Clock error of GPS satellites (3) Errors in satellite orbit information (4)Atmospheric delay (ionosphere, troposphere) (5) Reflections from buildings and mountains (multipath) (6) Receiver clock error (7)Other noise or signal attenuation (8) System failure (9) Insufficient number of satellite placements and supplements [No. 1 error factor]. Source: https://www.ne.jp/asahi/nature/kuro/HGPS/principle_gps.htm (Accessed June 15, 2021) Multipath refers to the fact that radio waves not only arrive in a straight line, but also reflect off mountains, buildings, etc., and propagate through multiple routes. Reflected radio waves cause a slight delay before reaching their destination, and the amount of delay is measured as "far (distance) away," which is one of the factors that disrupt accurate positioning.

  26. 30 Discussion: Unknown Pipelines <Reasons for the presence of unknown

    pipelines detected in this demonstration> ◼ In the early Showa period, the management of buried structures was inadequate, and the pipelines constructed at that time were not maintained with drawings. ◼ Past construction data has been discarded at the end of the administrative document management deadline and does not remain as paper drawings, and as a result, has not been digitized. ◼ When construction was performed by shifting the planned location during site matching at the time of construction, this information was not properly reflected in the as-built drawings. ◼ There are some pipelines owned by entities not covered in this demonstration. Unknown pipelines due to various factors are found underground. The system needs to continuously update the drawings.

  35. 43 Result Area Main Opinion Potential for Business use ◼

    It would be useful for consideration in the planning and design stages. ◼ There is merit in using it to determine which organization to go to for negotiation. ◼ General contractors will find it useful because it is an important issue where to draw infrastructure when constructing a building. ◼ It is easy to use in design discussions because the image can be grasped at a glance. Challenges in applying to business operations ◼ Assuming operations, there should be a system that allows the applicant to easily input the extent of excavation. ◼ In the actual burial survey, both design drawings and as-built drawings are checked. It is difficult to replace existing work without accuracy and freshness. ◼ It is my impression that many of the people who come to the buried structures department survey are commissioned survey designers and are not familiar with buried structures management itself; looking at the 3D model is not likely to change their behavior, especially if they are not familiar with the management of buried structures. ◼ If the 3D model is used for management, some people may omit the accuracy of the model. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version) I/F Inform ation ◼ Pipe diameter, material, and depth information is required. ◼ Information on public road surface, sidewalk surface, and property boundary at ground level is needed. ◼ Information on facilities that could be affected during excavation, such as utility poles and power lines, is desired. ◼ Information on manholes is desired. Functio n ◼ We want a mechanism to easily move the excavation area and determine if it is interfering with other facilities. ◼ We want to identify and confirm the point where equipment is interfering and the closest point to the equipment. We would like to have a function to display a cross-sectional view at an arbitrary point. ◼ We would like to have the ability to quickly list the governing bodies of interfering facilities. ◼ I would like to have a function to immediately create 2D drawings and negotiation types.Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version) Other ◼ The business law and internal standards stipulate that receptionist services are to be provided. The possibility and issues of using high-precision 3D models were confirmed.
  36. 45 Overview Utilizing a system operated by telecommunications, we conducted

    an equipment inquiry from a non-carrier to a telecommunications carrier.

  45. 55 Potential for business use organi zation Main Opinions A

    ◼ The accuracy of the drawings and model is a problem that needs to be overcome before it can be used in the application, but it could be used in terms of locating the pipelines. ◼ We believe it would be beneficial for design firms that are studying buildings from the ground up. By being able to see the underground infrastructure without having to go to the site, it can be used to consider where to draw power and communications lines from. B ◼ It can be utilized by the Agency to determine where to put the conduit. C ◼ The easier to identify and visualize, the easier it will be to share the perception at the time of negotiation. ◼ In the construction negotiation stage, it is more difficult to make changes, so it may be easier to use the negotiation in the design stage. D ◼ 3D is an easy way to visualize the site. Before excavating on site, 3D models can be used to share images and prevent accidents. E ◼ The ability to see it in 3D instead of 2D is a great benefit to the applicant. ◼ All in all, I believe that this type of structure and the part about jointly working with lifeline companies is necessary in the future. Although there are some issues, the possibility of utilizing the system at the planning stage and for sharing local awareness was confirmed.
  46. 56 Issues (1) Area Main opinions Pipelines Modeling ◼ In

    many cases, the installation pipes are not straight in as shown in the model and need to be reproduced more faithfully. ◼ It would be good if information on the pipes leading to each home could also be modeled in the future. ◼ Unrealistic slopes are found in some sections, which need to be improved. Scope of excavation Modeling of excavation impact zone ◼ The area of influence of the excavation is trapezoidal, but everything appears to be the extent of the excavation. ◼ Tokyo Gas and NTT have an agreement on the concept of the impact area. It would be good if it could be shown in a manner similar to the protective agreement in the case of actual operation. ◼ Please indicate clearly the extent of exposure. ◼ It would be good to be able to confirm information such as rooting depth in case of earth retention. Infor mati on cross-section view ◼ It would be good to confirm the separation from other companies, etc., while checking the cross-sectional view. manhole ◼ Manholes need to be modeled because they are larger than conduits and have a greater impact on construction. pipe type ◼ Pipe type is necessary for attribute information because the protection method, etc. differs depending on the pipe type. ◼ Attribute information is necessary because the concept of overtopping and undertopping differs depending on the type of pipe. ground ◼ Information on soil conditions, etc. (whether or not ground improvement is necessary) should also be available. ◼ In case of chemical injection, etc., it would be desirable to be able to display such information in polygons. above ground ◼ It would be good to include road surface pavement, cross section, pavement material (asphalt pavement or concrete pavement), sidewalk condition, etc., as these may be used in discussions with the road administrator. Enhancing attribute information such as surrounding area and pipe type is necessary for business use.
  47. 57 Issues (2) Area Main opinions Scope of check ◼

    In actual construction discussions, it is necessary to confirm the entire excavation area. ◼ It is difficult to use this as a negotiation unless it can be viewed continuously in the form of cross-sectional and plan view. Use with 2D ◼ I am concerned about when the most recent construction work, such as new construction and removal, will be reflected in the data. 3D drawings are available, but there are some areas where drawings must be used for the most recent work. Implementation format (5 groups at the same time) ◼ Although it would contribute to operational efficiency for applicants (construction companies) to be able to hold construction discussions with five organizations at the same time, it is difficult to perceive the benefits of increased efficiency on the part of those who accept the applications. ◼ Long waiting time. When looking at the content of other companies' discussions, I am concerned about the proximity of their facilities to ours. I felt that there are areas that could be improved by the way of facilitation. ◼ Some content is difficult to communicate to other companies, and there are advantages to individual company negotiations. Record of Discussions ◼ It is important to keep records in what way. It would be good if a record could be kept in the drawings of how many mm of separation was agreed upon during the discussions. Proof of negotiation ◼ The construction company is signed (signed on the touch pad) after the discussion. Wouldn't it be more difficult to do this online? Other ◼ A legend should be provided to quickly identify which tissue conduit each color represents. It is necessary to transforming the conventional offline operations into online.
  48. 59 Application in Maintenance Process Issues Availability Planning and Construction

    Planning ◼ Lack of time and effort to confirm the presence or absence of underground buried objects by each company within the construction area, and lack of reliability of drawings, etc. ◼ Difficult to estimate in advance the scope of impact (noise, vibration, etc.) caused by construction 〇 ◼ Support for short construction times due to road use conditions, etc. Procurement of equipment ◼ Difficulty in selecting equipment in consideration of equipment turning radius and separation from surrounding structures (power lines, poles, signboards, signals, etc.) (difficult to accurately determine in advance) 〇 Construction (Assignment) ◼ Response to unknown pipes not included in each facility manager's drawings, etc. ◼ Due to the influence of differences from each facility manager's drawings, the pipeline cannot be laid as designed (or at worst, does not fit) due to the existence of buried pipes, MH, or special sections at the design location. ◼ Addressing the lack of space for new equipment installation due to the large number of existing buried structures ◼ Handling of work restrictions due to ground objects such as power lines and signboards (e.g., a signboard is directly above a special section when a crane is about to hoist a special section). 〇 ◼ Drainage response to sudden groundwater overflow, etc. Safety Management ◼ Accidents caused by vehicles jumping into vehicles due to poor visibility, etc. 〇 ◼ Difficulty in effectively communicating and informing residents of the neighborhood, etc. 〇 The possibility of pre-assumption of the impact of noise was verified.

    or not to reflect the results ◼Impact on buildings exceeding noise thresholds ◼Installation of soundproofing sheets with high impact, change to anti-noise construction equipment (65dB) ◼Reconsider impact level (return to Step 2) ◼Regarding impact as the loudness of sound ◼For the largest noise process, the impact within the area of influence is displayed in color. ◼Using Plateau's "height data", the degree of impact is calculated spherically and confirmed three- dimensionally on the model. Step3 Impact (noise) examination ◼The area affected by the construction area (i.e., buildings) is the spherical range from the construction area to 50 dB attenuation, with buildings included even slightly (sound echo reflections are not considered). Step2 (to surrounding buildings) Establishment of the impact area ◼Due to a change in the boarding area caused by urban development, a 15-meter pull-up column was obstructed and relocated. ◼Backhoe (70 dB) was used for excavation ◼Although both day and night construction was possible, night construction was planned to minimize pedestrian traffic. Step1 Assumption of construction The noise propagation associated with construction of buried structures was visualized as a feasibility study.

  56. 69 Results(1) ◼ A high-precision 3D model of underground structures

    was constructed after positional correction based on 3D spatial information (equivalent to 1/500 scale) for drawing information managed by each company in different formats. ◼ Issues identified at each stage of the construction of 3D models of underground structures (inconsistent formats, mixed geodetic systems, lack of and inconsistent definition of height information, etc.) were comprehensively organized by stage. A high-precision 3D model of underground structures was constructed. ◼ accuracy of the drawings was clarified through comparison with actual subsurface measurement results, which showed that there were deviations of several meters to a maximum of nearly one meter and the existence of unknown pipes not included in the drawings. ◼ Through the comparison and verification, we have systematically organized the causes of the errors. Drawing-based and measurement-based 3D models were compared to verify accuracy. ◼ Array-type equipment was used for the purpose of developing and examining efficient measurement methods for the subsurface. ◼ Although continuous acquisition of information (especially depth information) was possible with a small number of scans, it was confirmed that current technology can only measure depths of 1.0m to 1.5m, and that structures deeper than that require the use of conventional equipment, etc. in combination. The feasibility of an array-type device is verified. Comprehensive verification of 3D modeling and its potential for use in business operations was conducted.
  57. 70 Results(2) This demonstration has increased a momentum for digitization

    of underground buried objects. ◼ Verification of operational efficiency using 3D models of underground structures (buried structure inquiry, online construction negotiation, and value-added study of maintenance and management) was conducted to confirm the potential for use in operations, use cases, technical improvement points (missing information and functions), and operational issues. ◼ In particular, we confirmed that the use of an online system can improve the efficiency of both the applicant and the recipient. The 3D models of underground structures were shared with management organizations. ◼ The entire company gathered for an online construction negotiation during the demonstration to discuss the possibility of using 3D models and to recognize the need for data sharing and modeling. ◼ At the same time, the study contributed to the sharing of awareness toward the realization of a digital twin in Tokyo, which in turn contributed to the improvement of the momentum toward digitalization among the companies, and provided an opportunity to take the first step toward future collaboration. The demo with 5 organizations increased momentum of underground digitization. ◼ Progressing from the release of the image video last year, the 3D model was made available to the public on a viewer to compel the metropolitan residents to see the progress of the digitalization of the underground. The 3D models were made public on the viewer (even if limited).

  59. 72 Issues (1) Issues in business operations exist in modeling,

    information, and function. ◼ The burden of building the model was greater than expected because the management formats of each company were different, and for some organizations, paper drawings were still managed and had to be digitized. ◼ In the future, when expanding the area, it will be necessary to unify the digitization and formatting. Large burden of modeling due to inconsistencies in management formats etc. ◼ It became clear that there was a lack of accuracy in the drawings due to various factors, and that it was difficult to solve the problem in a short period of time. ◼ It is necessary to allow for a certain level of inaccuracy (misalignment, lack of height information, existence of unknown pipes, etc.) and to consider specific use cases that can still be fully utilized. A lack of accuracy in drawings ◼ In addition to improving the accuracy of the underground structure model itself (geometry and attribute information), it is necessary to enhance the information on the surface (electric lines, poles, etc.) and other underground structures in order to utilize the model in business operations. ◼ In terms of functionality, a variety of additional functions need to be considered. Lack of attribute information and functions
  60. 73 Issues (2) Building a sustainable operational system for the

    underground buried objects is necessary. ◼ Since there is a time lag between the on-site construction work and the creation and digitization of drawings, it is necessary to establish an operational method (e.g., combined use with 2D) that takes into account the delay in reflecting data for new construction, removal, etc. ◼ There are some things that can only be achieved through face-to-face discussions by individual companies (e.g., approval of the contents of discussions, sharing of information that is difficult to convey to other companies, etc.), and it is necessary to consider how to build these into the system and 3D models (or combine them).Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version) Combine with existing operations (face-to-face, paper drawings, 2D) ◼ Although the need for digitization of the underground was recognized through discussions with the organizations, they expressed concern about who and how to continuously acquire data, update and maintain the model, etc. ◼ It is necessary to establish a sustainable system and operational framework, taking into consideration the division of roles with existing organizations, etc. Sustainable operational system (i.e. modeling, maintenance, updating) ◼ Some issues, such as the heavy workload of "stand-in" work, have been heard in the field, and it is necessary to consider countermeasures, including methods other than the use of 3D models.
