A facility changes throughout its life. How can captured evidence remain useful through maintenance, renovation and system replacement? This session explores reality capture as operational memory: a record that helps teams understand what was installed, what changed and what evidence supports their next action. The focus is on making that record accessible, trustworthy and maintainable.

Learning outcomes
By the end of this session, attendees will be able to:

• Identify lifecycle moments when visual evidence is most valuable.
• Specify the context needed to retrieve and interpret historical captures.
• Assign responsibility for maintaining the record after handover.
• Define measures of use and value, including retrieval time and avoided repeat visits.
