1. A computer-implemented method for augmenting an as-built model comprising:
- obtaining, in a first computer, a computer-aided design (CAD) drawing of a project;
receiving, in the first computer from a second computer, a digital representation of a physical implementation of the project;
defining, in the first computer, a relationship that maps the digital representation to the CAD drawing;
identifying, in the first computer, a component of the digital representation based on the relationship; and
transmitting, from the first computer to the second computer, information about the identified component, wherein the second computer is configured to display the information.

Abstract
A method, system, apparatus, and computer program product provide the ability to augment an as-built model. A CAD drawing of a project as well as a digital representation of a physical implementation of the project are obtained. A relationship that maps the digital representation to the CAD drawing is defined/established. A component of the digital representation is identified based on the relationship (e.g., and a database/catalog). Information about the identified component is transmitted to and displayed on a computer (e.g., a mobile device).

12. An apparatus for augmenting an as-built model displayed on a mobile device comprising:
-
(a) the mobile device having a memory; and (b) an application executing on the mobile device, wherein the application is configured to; (i) obtain a digital representation of a physical implementation of a project; (ii) transmit the digital representation to a first computer, wherein the first computer is configured to; (1) maintain a computer-aided design (CAD) drawing of the project; (2) define a relationship that maps the digital representation to the CAD drawing; and (3) identify a component of the digital representation based on the relationship; (iii) receive, from the first computer, information about the identified component; and (iv) display the information. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
