The podcast, Groundbreakers: Transforming Geotech aim is to educate, inspire, and provoke thought by helping people understand the value of technologies such as instrumentation, INSAR etc., along with being digiwise in the geotechnical engineering industry by leveraging your rich experiences. Our objective is to reshape the geotechnical engineering landscape by exploring the intersections of cutting-edge technologies and innovative practices. I want to use the power of dialogue to enrich our community.
How Monitoring Enables Better Decisions. Groundbreaking with Shiv Mohan and Rodrigo Betanzo
In this episode of #GroundBreakers, we tackle a fundamental truth about infrastructure monitoring:
Most monitoring systems don’t fail because of technology. They fail because they were never designed to support decisions.
Featuring Shiv Mohan and Rodrigo, this conversation explores a critical shift — from viewing monitoring as a collection of instruments and dashboards to understanding it as a decision-making system designed from the start.
We break down why traditional specifications often fall short, how compliance-driven setups limit real value, and what it takes to design systems that actually deliver clarity, context, and action.
This episode goes deeper into:
Why monitoring specifications must begin with decisions, not devices
The gap between data collection and engineering judgment
How to think about integration, data flow, and context early in the project lifecycle
A structured approach to move from raw data → to actionable intelligence
At its core, this is about a shift happening across the industry:
from monitoring systems → to decision intelligence systems.
Whether you’re an asset owner, consultant, or contractor, this episode offers a practical lens to rethink how monitoring should be designed — not for compliance, but for real-world decision-making and risk management.

Groundbreaking with Jose Berrio
In this episode of #GroundBreakers, we dive into one of the biggest gaps in infrastructure today: why monitoring data fails to become decisions.Across major infrastructure projects, data is being collected at scale — from geotechnical instruments, structural sensors, and environmental systems. Yet in many cases, this data remains fragmented across contractors, formats, and platforms, never reaching engineers and decision-makers in a way that truly informs action.Joining us is Jose Antonio Berrio, VP of International Services, as we unpack what it actually takes to move from fragmented data to engineering clarity.Together, we explore how convergence, contextualization, and integrated platforms can transform raw readings into actionable intelligence — enabling better risk management, faster decisions, and more reliable asset performance across the lifecycle.Through real-world examples, this conversation highlights a critical shift happening in the industry:from data collection → to decision intelligence.Whether you're an asset owner managing complex portfolios, a consultant designing monitoring strategies, or a contractor navigating data handoffs, this episode will change how you think about monitoring systems and the role of data in engineering decisions.Join us as we continue #TransformingGeotech and building the future of #EngineeringExcellence.#GroundBreakersPodcast #TransformingGeotech #DecisionIntelligence #DataToDecisions #InfrastructureMonitoring #SmartInfrastructure #GeotechnicalEngineering #StructuralMonitoring #IoTInEngineering #DigitalEngineering #EngineeringLeadership #InfrastructureSafety #DataIntegration #EngineeringInnovation #AssetManagement #CivilEngineering #MonitoringSolutions #DigitalTransformation #EngineeringPodcast #RiskManagement

Groundbreakers LATAM Rising with Sebastian, Jonathan and Antonio
GroundBreakers Presents: LATAM Rising Episode 2: Fragmentation to IntegrationIn this episode, hosts Ritvick Bhalla and Sebastián Lobo-Guerrero explore how the region is shifting from fragmented monitoring to integrated decision intelligence connecting sensors, dataloggers, remote sensing, and intelligent platforms like Proqio.
Featuring:
Jonathan Mendoza Chávez – Encardio-Rite Peru
Antonio Lozano – Geoengineering Services Consulting, Peru
Discover how integration drives better slope stability analysis, mining safety, and infrastructure resilience — turning data into foresight and action.
“Integrar es proteger — integrar es avanzar.”
Integration is protection — and progress.
Watch now and be part of the movement transforming geotechnical intelligence across LATAM.
Key takeaway: Integration starts before the project breaks ground — not after.
