Building with Floors & Dots

Levels of Detail Can be Mixed Together Dots on Buildings can be Objects such as the Chair

http://BIMXML.org

BIMXML

Portfolios of Buildings can be Dots on a Map

With GIS Data: <GeoReference Angle="0" Latitude="38.892937983993001" Longitude="-77.051073693019006" HeightAboveSeaLevel="23.3221"/>

Levels
Scales from World Level to Individual Object

BIMXML

Levels
Any Level Can be Abstracted to a Dot

World Site Building Floor Room

BIMXML

Levels
Levels of Detail are Non Linear - One Can Mix them Up even in One Building

Levels of Detail Can be Mixed

For Example: In a single space some furniture may have more detailed geometry and other furniture may not have any geometry, just a dot.

Simple XML Connections

Most of the World Has no Idea what BIM or IFC is but they do manage information about the built environment using established standards from: http://www.w3.org/XML/ BIMXML is an immediate link to that world.

BIMXML

BIMXML is Extremely Lightweight

Simple Connections are Possible

FM
Open Floor Plan

COBie

WebServices

BIM CLOUD

BIMXML does NOT Replace IFC BIMXML does NOT manage the detail geometries of buildings.
