Integration Approach of BIM and GIS in Forming of the Upper Kama Architecture Database

Abstract

The article address the issue of three-dimentional and spatial data integration applied to architectural heritage. Integrated approach of BIM and GIS models allow BIM models not to be limited in the description of buildings but also describe interactions of the object and surrounded environment, contributing to the management of the urban environment in an interoperable way. In this paper proposed the approach of division investigating objects on several scales. Movement from regional scaled data till building scaled data allows considering architectural monuments on every stage of the persistence. This approach described at the case study of surveying Upper Kama region. For this territory were identified several types of the environment. Within every of this types the morphology of architecture is described. All obtained data was divided considering scales and usage of BIM or GIS, or integrated models. Creation of certain model depends on analytical tasks. Such ways of the heritage digitization is a basis for future work on physical or virtual restoration.
