:0 INTRODUCTION
]^ 'Kd*x The growth of mega cities has been particularly dramatic across parts of Asia. The need for quality living
o.g V4% space coupled with the increasing density of infrastructural development poses unprecedented challenges
4Zddw0|2 and opportunities for the geo-industry. The purpose of this international symposium is to provide a
\?ZB]*Fu platform to showcase recent advances in ground technology and geo-information systems. Innovative
m@F`!qY~Y\ technology and their effective applications are needed to:
T|op$ s| (1) Propel productivity in the geo-industry;
#s( BuVU (2) Respond to more complex technical challenges in the development of underground space;
"]x'PI 4J (3) Support increasing social demand for sustainable and responsible development – green technology
wn, KY$/ being one of the recent topical examples.
Y%aCMP9j~9 This symposium is jointly organized by Geotechnical Society of Singapore (GeoSS), National University of
DE8n+Rm Singapore (NUS), and Tongji University. The main theme in this symposium is on geo-innovations
fLD, 5SN applicable to all work processes from site investigation, design, construction, monitoring, testing, etc that
SC!RbW@3 can promote more creative exploitation of underground space/systems while improving safety,
D~iz+{Q4 productivity, economy, and harmony with the natural environment.
