METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR LINKING BUILDING INFORMATION MODELS WITH BUILDING MAINTENANCE INFORMATION
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving a request for a spatial analysis of building behavior of an entity within a building facility;
retrieving building maintenance information about the entity within the building facility;
accessing a building information model for the building facility, with the building information model comprising a representation of one or more of a physical characteristic and a functional characteristic of the entity within the building facility;
identifying a portion of the building information model that pertains to the entity; and
based on the retrieved building maintenance information and the identified portion of the building information model, generating the spatial analysis of the building behavior for the entity within the building facility;
wherein the spatial analysis comprises;
a representation of the building maintenance information; and
a representation of the one or more of the physical characteristic and the functional characteristic of the entity within the building facility;
with the representation of the building maintenance information being an overlay to the representation of the one or more of the physical characteristic and the functional characteristic of the entity within the building facility.
