At Dalux she emphasizes the benefits of a holistic visualization of interconnected information, including building information modeling (BIM), reality capture, point clouds, and GIS data.

As a customer success manager, Chahal is supporting all stages of a project from design, through construction to facility management across various sectors, including commercial, residential, and infrastructure.

Chahal is overseeing the implementation and adoption of Dalux on a new subway infrastructure project in Toronto, Canada, which is leveraging several map types and customized zones to manage location-based registrations of the tunnel and stations that are spanning the downtown core. She is working closely with the project digital delivery team on evaluating strategies for quality implementation plans, safety inspection checklists, daily record logs, 360-degree SiteWalks, and drone surveys to maintain consistent metadata for all stations and to align with 3D models and GIS points.
