IFG Outline (April 2005) Scope for the project To provide GIS information through IFC by leveraging developments that have occurred within IAI (for the AEC community) and ISO TC211 (for the GIS community). Define the interface between the AEC world and the GIS world and to develop strategies to improve interoperability and collaboration. Define model development and/or mapping approaches that build upon GIS developments within ISO TC211. Development of the project will focus on support on making the zoning plan and building plan submission process more efficient. Key to this is the integration of GIS information in a central building and property registry with AEC/FM information about the individual buildings that are registered. In other words : The focus of the project is to make it possible to communicate relevant intelligent information from various GIS standards to CAD systems using IFC. The buisiness needs are that some information is neccesary to have access to from IFC enabled CAD software when planning a bulding or an area with buldings. It's also neccesary to extract parts of the site and building information (form IFC) and make it awailable in GIS standard formats. The dynamic discussions are done in the project place where also updatded documents can be found.
