The Convergence of Architectural and Engineering Design and GIS: Implications for Emergency Response and Urban Planning Geoff Zeiss Director of Technology Autodesk Infrastructure Solutions Division 1

Annual Construction Spend Worldwide $ 2. 3 trillion per year China $ 88 billion (1 Q 2007 ) India $ 50 billion per year Canada $68 billion (in 97$) per year US $1. 2 trillion per year Infrastructure Solutions Division 5 © 2005 Autodesk

What’s the Business Problem ? 2002 National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Study § Quantified efficiency losses in the U. S. capital facilities industry from inadequate interoperability § Design, engineering, facilities management, and business processes software systems § Redundant paper records management § Entire facility life-cycle. § Estimated inadequate interoperability costs $15. 8 billion § “Likely to be a conservative figure” - NIST § Two-thirds of costs borne by owners and operators, predominantly during ongoing facility operation and maintenance. Rule of thumb: 90% of cost of a facility incurred during operations and maintenance Infrastructure Solutions Division 7 © 2005 Autodesk

Challenge: Aging Workforce US Utility industry Survey 2004 Today, 50% of the utility workforce is aged 45 or more. The potential loss of knowledge base is a critical issue. § Security § Safety § Productivity Infrastructure Solutions Division 10 © 2005 Autodesk

Standards for Interoperability IAI IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) § International Alliance for Interoperability (IAI) § § Alliance of organizations dedicated to bring about a coordinated change for the improvement of productivity and efficiency in the construction and facilities management industry (Building Smart). IFC/ifc. XML Common Model, also known as Industry Foundation Classes, which is defined using an XML schema. NBIMS § NIBS National Institute of Building Sciences § BIM is a shared digital representation founded on open standards for interoperability. § Common life-cycle information model for the A/E/C and Facilities Management industry. OGC OWS (Open Web Services) § Web Mapping Service (WMS), Web Feature Service (WFS), Geographic Markup Language (GML), and other services.
