Track: Facilities
Authors: Maruf Sakib, George Mcleod

In modern GIS for facilities management, there is an increasing trend for utilizing building information models (BIM). Each year GIS industry pushes towards 3D, adopting this trend into mainstream workflows. Yet, as most stable workflows leverage 2D, BIM data often needs to go through a set of complicated conversion procedures to be usable. This discussion will include the basic steps needed to include BIM in an enterprise GIS including data conversion and enterprise integration procedures.
