How BIM brings together citizens and planners at the virtual round table

Abstract

This editorially generated abstract summarizes the topic indicated by the title “How BIM brings together citizens and planners at the virtual round table.” The article concerns the use of geospatial information and related digital methods in the context suggested by its subject. It provides a framework for considering how building information modeling, bim, geospatial data, digital construction, urban planning can support data collection, interpretation, planning, communication, or operational decision-making, depending on the application. Geospatial workflows commonly bring together location-referenced datasets, analytical tools, visualization, and domain expertise. Examining these elements can help readers understand the practical questions involved, including data quality, interoperability, usability, and the transfer of information between people and systems. The title also points to the relationship between technical capability and real-world needs: successful implementation generally depends not only on software or sensors, but also on suitable data, clear processes, and coordination among stakeholders. Readers interested in building information modeling, bim, geospatial data, digital construction, urban planning may use the article as a starting point for understanding the application area and identifying questions for further investigation. Because this abstract was created from the bibliographic title rather than the full article text, it should be treated as an editorial description, not as a verified summary of the article's methods, findings, or conclusions. The source record places the contribution in issue 4 of gis.Business (2020), on pages 15-17. The source record lists Hartmann U. as the author. The original article should be consulted for its exact scope, evidence, and conclusions.
