BIMKIT – Annual Conference 2022

BIMKIT aims at making Artificial Intelligence (AI) and cloud technologies usable for the construction industry as key technologies of the German government’s digitization strategy. Information on buildings and infrastructure structures, e.g. 2D plans, images, point clouds or text documents, are to be interpreted using AI methods. Structural and technical construction elements are to be generated and consistently and transparently integrated into a BIM-based as-built model. Correspondingly, updating an existing as-built model is to be automated. The data and AI services will be provided decentralized, based on GAIA-X and using open standards as well as existing BIM systems. In this, data sovereignty and data security play a key role, as security-relevant information on structures is also interpreted. This creates an ecosystem which forms a fundamental basis for BIM applications.

BIMKIT is funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK).
