Open Access Deliverables and Knowledge Sharing
As part of its commitment to transparency, open science, and wide dissemination, the CHEK project makes all its technical and scientific deliverables publicly available. These documents showcase serious breakthroughs in the digitalization of building permitting processes. By enabling free access to validated methodologies, tools, and workflows, CHEK fosters knowledge sharing and supports stakeholders in adopting innovative practices. All outcomes are available for download, reinforcing our mission to contribute openly to digital transformation in the built environment.
OUR MISSION
… is to take away barriers for municipalities to adopt digital building permit processes
Today’s building permit issuance is mainly a manual, document-based process. It therefore suffers from low accuracy, low transparency and low efficiency. This leads to delays and errors in planning, design and construction. Finally, manual (document-based) compliance checking is prone to errors and suffers from limited accuracy and precision.
