Riga hosts the opening of Rail Baltica’s BIM for Rail Bootcamp 2026, bringing together more than 100 railway infrastructure professionals to advance digitalisation in the Baltic rail network. The three-day bootcamp, launched on 25 June at the Riga Technical University campus, marks the first time the event has been held in the Latvian capital and underscores the region’s growing role in Building Information Modelling (BIM) for rail infrastructure .

Organised by Rail Baltica and RTU, the bootcamp features workshops, case studies, and hands-on training sessions led by international experts. Participants will explore BIM applications in design, construction, and asset management, with a focus on interoperability standards and digital twins for high-speed rail corridors. “This bootcamp is about equipping the next generation of engineers with the tools to deliver Rail Baltica’s 870-kilometre network efficiently and sustainably,” said a Rail Baltica spokesperson .

The initiative follows the groundbreaking of Pro Kapital’s €23 million Blue Marine Residence in Riga’s Klīversala district on 24 June, a project that embeds a time capsule on 17 June to commemorate the city’s evolving urban landscape . While distinct from Rail Baltica’s digital focus, the residential development highlights Riga’s broader infrastructure and real estate momentum, with both projects signalling the city’s positioning as a hub for innovation and connectivity.

Rail Baltica’s BIM bootcamp also aligns with recent technical workshops hosted by RB Rail AS in Vilnius, where Rail Baltica experts engaged with Port Polska delegates to refine high-speed rail infrastructure standards . Bentley Systems, which announced a new office and major expansion in Vilnius on 26 June, further reinforces the Baltic states’ growing prominence in digital engineering for infrastructure .

As Rail Baltica progresses toward its 2030 operational target, the BIM bootcamp represents a critical step in standardising digital workflows across the project’s three member states—Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. With over 100 professionals convening in Riga, the event signals both the scale of ambition and the collaborative spirit driving the Baltic rail revolution.

Еще один способ нас поддержать — без денег! Из России тоже можно, в два клика. А еще вы (возможно) узнаете про новый функционал своего телефона На протяжении последних двух лет Google планомерно меняет свой поиск, а заодно и пользовательские привычки. С середины 2024 года компания активно внедряет искусственный интеллект во все свои системы. В результате Google постепенно превращается из обычного поисковика, который выдает десятки ссылок по ключевым словам, в персонального ИИ-ассистента, отвечающего на вопросы, заданные простым «человеческим» языком. Это не всегда хорошо отражается на качестве выдаваемой информации: иногда система галлюцинирует и случается, что ее ответы основаны на непроверенных (а иногда и просто пропагандистских) источниках. К счастью, недавно появился способ это исправить. Рассказываем, как адаптировать поисковые системы Google под себя — и одновременно помочь «Медузе» найти новую аудиторию.
