Award category criteria

Show how your use of the technology delivered improved outcomes for the organizations involved and the communities served.
Demonstrate how your use of technology delivered measurable results through reality modeling, 3D geospatial modeling, mobile mapping, instrumentation, and sensor data management.
Submissions should demonstrate use of Bentley applications, independently or combined with other software, across the project lifecycle. Eligible software includes Cesium and iTwin Capture.
Show what made your approach stand out. Consider: creative use of Cesium or iTwin Capture, strong visualization of complex assets, and workflows that helped teams understand, share, and act on infrastructure data.
Detail how your project improved performance: the value of reality modeling and geospatial context, a clear workflow from data capture to actionable insight, and the use of AI or machine learning where relevant.
Provide quantified results: cost savings across design, construction, and maintenance, along with time savings, resource optimization, and stronger risk management.
Showcase impact on climate adaptation, disaster preparedness, energy savings, carbon reduction, improved resilience, quality of life, and mitigated risk.
Include high-quality visuals: images, screenshots, models, simulations, animations, charts, and diagrams. Provide quantitative data where applicable. Show how digital twins and AI advanced project delivery or asset performance.
