I was looking through 101-useful-websites article and came across AlternativeTo.net and used it to look up alternatives to say “Revit” and “AutoCad” and other tools I use. I then typed in KNIME which I use for data mining, data analysis and it came up with Orange as a free alternative.  So I looked at some

I have been interested in displaying tabulated data on a web page from a Database, exploring what is out there to use. WordPress has a couple of Free Table add-in’s but they are usually only available for uploading static data to your website (or from Excel/CSV). There is one WordPress Add-in that read from a

I was viewing the free statistics-101 course from Cognitive Class.ai and they recommend using the SPSS statistical tool by IBM which you can use on a free trial base for 14 days. I came across a free tool PSPP  which is based on the SPSS tool but is freeware when looking at this video on

This Survey uses Revit Model Measures to Compare against SPM Surveyed Data of 26 identical apartments. The Survey This is comparison of Duncan Terrace Flats  A01 to A26 which are all similar,( some handed so bathroom/kitchens are flipped- see plans below). Each individual flat was surveyed by one of 5 surveyors who had a group

Capturing information on existing assets is a challenge Wellington City Council (WCC) has over 2200 social housing units and so getting good information on them in a consistent manner was a challenge. They undertook a condition survey with surveyors on the properties. It took the surveyors on average 4 hours to survey each unit. There
