BIM-ProVeSy

BIM-ProVeSy Rijkswaterstaat (Pavement Information Model) connects asphalt data from more than 100 datasets covering production, testing, mix compositions and road administration. Using Linked Data and an Object Type Library OTL, the project makes these datasets interoperable and queryable. Rijkswaterstaat and Boskalis use the model to improve asphalt analysis, management and prediction.

Description

BIM-ProVeSy Rijkswaterstaat

Pavement Information Model for asphalt data

The BIM-ProVeSy application is built on the Wistor platform to make the Pavement Information Model (PIM) accessible. It allows Rijkswaterstaat and partners such as Boskalis to explore, query and reuse asphalt data from more than 100 datasets. By linking laboratory tests, production data and road administration in one semantic model, the app provides a clear and consistent view of asphalt performance across the entire lifecycle.

Advantages

Highlights

Highlights of BIM-ProVeSy webapplication.

  • 100+ datasets integrated

    Data from more than 100 sources are combined.

  • Linked Data structure

    All datasets are harmonized into a Linked Data model using an ontology.

  • Pavement Information Model (PIM)

    A PIM was developed as a central asphalt and pavement administration model for Rijkswaterstaat and Boskalis.

  • Query and analysis

    Asphalt data can be queried across sources for better insights into composition and performance.

  • OTL viewer

    The model can be explored in an OTL viewer, improving transparency and reuse.

  • Sustainability and forecasting

    The case contributes to sustainable asphalt by enabling better predictions and lifecycle planning.

Usecase

From data silos to smarter road management

For years, asphalt and pavement data has been locked away in separate systems: laboratory tests, production plants and road administration each kept their own records. This made it nearly impossible to see how materials performed over time or to use data as a basis for planning.

BIM-ProVeSy breaks down these silos by linking more than 100 datasets into one Pavement Information Model. With this shared model, Rijkswaterstaat can:

  • understand how asphalt behaves in practice
  • make reliable maintenance and investment decisions
  • predict road performance and extend lifespan
  • reduce environmental impact through smarter planning and reuse of materials

Instead of fragmented information, there is now one source of truth for managing and improving the Dutch road network.
