Abstract (English)

Data is a decisive success criterion for efficient provision of services in Facility Management (FM). Therefore, various IT systems are used to process static and dynamic data. The Building Information Modeling (BIM) method offers a possibility to optimize the cross-lifecycle data exchange between these IT systems through open data formats, such as the IFC format. Currently, BIM is mainly used to map static data, while dynamic data for FM is rarely mapped. In particular, the integration of dynamic data, such as runtime and monitoring data generated by sensor technologies, for results-oriented FM service provision is still insufficient within the framework of the BIM and the associated data formats. This paper will present a possibility for integrating dynamic data into BIM-based, open data exchange formats. For this purpose, the data and IT systems relevant to FM are analyzed and the open data exchange format IFC is evaluated concerning the integration of dynamic FM data. Based on this, approaches for the integration and use of dynamic data in IFC are developed.
