Especially when it comes to 3D-post-documentations of existing buildings the data collected is limited to the above-mentioned building components due to financial reasons. Further factual information is vital for documentation, inspection and maintenance…
The process and data structure standardisation within the Building Information Modeling (BIM) sector has been discussed very actively for some years now.
