Data to Import to BIMStorm

To start up a BIMStorm, we need to have background data and input from participants:

Inputs to BIMStorm:
Can be imported directly into OPS:

• Excel Program of building areas
• Google Earth KML files of property lines
• Google Earth KML files of other property features, utilities etc.
• Any native BIM files, Revit, Archicad, etc.
• IFC files of BIM
• Google Map, sketches can be imported to OPS:
• We can use Google Map to sketch out study areas and input ideas directly on the map.
• Here is a starter Map

Can be attached or converted for import to OPS:

• GIS ESRI Shape files can be converted to KML, but we would prefer if the KML files were available.
• Sketches, JPEGS, PDFs are also ok, we can import them in as backgrounds
• Autocad DWG files do not import directly, but could be used to build up relevant data to import to OPS, for example through Revit.
• Photographs of site
