For any adic transformation $T$ defined on the path space $X$ of an ordered Bratteli diagram, endowed with a Markov measure $\mu$, we construct an explicit dimension space (which corresponds to a matrix values random walk on $\mathbb{Z}$) whose Poisson boundary can be identified as a $\mathbb{Z}$-space with the dynamical system $(X,\mu,T)$. We give a couple of examples to show how dimension spaces can be used in the study of nonsingular transformations.
