“…These data points are interlinked with the digital portrayal of the city and are harnessed for purposes such as urban planning, urban analysis, and city management applications configuring CIMs [136,140]. As demonstrated in the literature, the integration of GIS software and BIM model technology can benefit buildings in various fields, such as reducing energy consumption, optimizing the construction site, and improving architectural designs [141]. Research on using the integration of GIS software and BIM model technology is ongoing and can be applied in many sectors, such as water and hydropower protection projects [77], tunnels [78], and bridges [79].…”

The emergence of Digital Twin (DT) technology presents unique opportunities for society by facilitating real-time data transfer from the physical environment to its digital counterpart. Although progress has been made in various industry sectors such as aerospace, the Architecture, Engineering, Construction, and Operation (AECO) sector still requires further advancements, like the adoption of these technologies over traditional approaches. The use of these technologies should become standard practice rather than an advanced operation. This paper aims to address the existing gap by presenting a comprehensive framework that integrates technologies and concepts derived from purpose-driven case studies and research studies across different industries. The framework is designed to provide best practices for the AECO sector. Moreover, it aims to underscores the potential of DT for optimization through overseeing and digital management of the built environment across the entire life cycle of facilities, encompassing design, construction, operation, and maintenance. It is based on an extensive literature review and presents a holistic approach to outlining the roles of Building Information Modelling (BIM), Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Internet of Things (IoT), and other key enablers within the DT environment. These digital tools facilitating the simultaneous evaluation of associated benefits, such as resource savings and future prospects, like monitoring project sustainability objectives.

“…This can be rephrased as classification or generalization problem and thus could motivate new application areas and a fresh view on cartographic generalization methods, for example by applying constraint-based generalization (Sayidov et al, 2020) to prepare input data for the tiling process. Another area of traditional knowledge to tie in with are developments in the AEC area, such as the derivation of architectural drawings from 3D data and more recent reinterpretations for interactive media (Gotlib et al, 2020) or applications for indoor maps via building floor plans in GIS context (Konde et al, 2018, for example).…”

Abstract. Current attempts to integrate gaming, geospatial and AEC technologies are driven by increased hardware capabilities and target virtual worlds as close to reality as possible. In this paper we pursue a converse destination and populate low-tech virtual worlds from geospatial data, building and city models, specifically for retro gaming engines in spatial chat tools. We consider an island, a building and a city district scenario and populate these scenarios from OSM, IFC, and CityGML data sources. The derived worlds are targeting use cases in business, educational and recreational settings. Based on a prototypical implementation, we study the feasibility and limitations of good quality retro gaming map generation with automatic means from existing data sets, but also the potential of such worlds for Green IT, accessibility and inspiration of new user groups. We describe the algorithms and processes to generate the maps and outline the concept for a user survey. Beyond that, by discussing map generation techniques from classical gaming in context of and comparison with geospatial and AEC practices, this paper contributes a retrospective of early gaming techniques that might be both entertaining and informative for current development practice.

“…There can also be hybrid 2D+ maps. In this case we have not only floors plans, but also vertical cross-sections [7]. These maps, in addition to navigation, are also used to visualize the interior of the building for the user and guide him to any place of his choice.…”

Mapmodeling is an important aspect of indoor navigation. It involves creating a digital map of the indoor environment that can be used for navigation purposes. The map can be created using various techniques such as laser scanning, photogrammetry, and computer vision. Once the map is created, it can be used to develop navigation algorithms that can help users navigate the indoor environment. In this paper, we propose a solution based on CAD files. These models can be used for a variety of purposes, includingindoor navigation. There are many CAD applications available, including AutoCAD, SketchUp, and SolidWorks, among others. It is a relatively cheap method to model any indoor environment from scans of plans or CAD files. CAD files are the most accurate way to build a digital indoor map because these files can include 2D or 3D designs and usually contain important location information (e.g. floor level) within the layer properties. Moreover, we can map the CAD annotation to the following feature classes if they conform to the indoors model: types of rooms, types of doors, etc. We propose a solution based on DXF format files. We developed the parser to transfer the necessary data from the CAD files to the navigation system. It consists of processing existing maps from the CAD format to the appropriate structure, supplementing it with the data of BLE transmitters, and saving it as a graph suitable for determining routes and guiding the user along the route. We use our method in a system that supports navigation and user safety, emphasizing users with special needs, which we are implementing on our academic campus.
