BIM Data Model Based on Multi-Scale Grids in Civil Engineering Buildings

Abstract

The construction of digital twin cities is a current research hotspot; GIS technology and BIM technology are widely used in the field of digital twin cities. However, BIM is still subject to major limitations in its applications, mainly due to huge amounts of model data, low query efficiency and accuracy, non-uniform marking systems, etc. The reason is that the BIM model itself focuses more on the expression of visual effects and lacks spatial calculation ability and the utilization of spatial location information. Secondly, the current lightweight processing methods for BIM models are mostly based on geometric transformation and rendering optimization, focusing more on the data compression and visual quality of the model, which essentially does not change the data structure of the BIM model, and it is difficult to establish the mapping relationship between spatial location and spatial data, information, and resources. In addition, current coding methods proposed for BIM models are mostly based on the line classification method, which realizes the identification of components based on the classification of their attributes, and the location information is stored according to the attributes or natural language descriptions, which need to be parsed and translated when they are used, and this procedure ignores the importance of spatial location in daily management and emergency management. The importance of spatial location in daily management and emergency management is also ignored. Based on this kind of identification code, it is impossible to directly analyze and apply spatial location data. Therefore, this paper takes the combination of GIS technology and BIM technology as the starting point and proposes a BIM data modeling method based on the BeiDou grid code, based on the efficiency of its underlying data organization and the accuracy of its real geographic location expression on the one hand and the completeness of the information expression by BIM and fine three-dimensional visualization on the other hand. Finally, a series of experiments are carried out based on the method. Through visualization modeling and efficiency experiments, different feature models are meshed to verify the feasibility and efficiency of the model. Through coding and information query experiments, the model′s data organization capability, data dynamic carrying capability, and efficient spatial computation capability and practical application capability are verified.
