From Design to Digital Twin: Building Indoor GIS with CAD and BIM Data

CAD and BIM have long served as the foundational design and construction documentation —but their utility often ends at project handoff. What if it didn’t? Indoor GIS is a floor-aware system of record for visualizing, analyzing, and managing facilities and collection of buildings. This session will demonstrate how to extend the life of CAD and BIM data into an indoor GIS, and empower CAD, BIM and GIS practitioners to build a Digital Workplace for building operations. Learn about the role of CAD and BIM integrations with GIS to fuel these workflows. See how to import design data into ArcGIS Indoors to map assets and manage spaces, enable real-time navigation with ArcGIS IPS, and equip facilities’ staff with mobile tools for asset inspections and maintenance. Whether new to GIS or looking to modernize facility operations workflows, this session provides you with guidance and examples to convert CAD and BIM data into Digital Workplaces that support asset and space management.

Why Digital Prototyping Integrations Fail: Building a Data Model for Operational Success
Digital Prototypings often fail not because of technology, but due to misalignment between data and operational reality. In this session, we’ll explore what goes wrong when Digital Prototypings are handed over to FM teams, and we’ll present a tested solution: a facility template and data model built for real-world operations, with a focus on Sustainable Design and insights enabled by artificial intelligence (AI). Developed using Autodesk Tandem software and integrated with Planon, the template supports both short- and long-term operational needs. You’ll learn how we moved beyond COBie by using data models to define information requirements that support lifecycle management, while ensuring Sustainable Design metrics are captured and used for AI-driven decisions. We’ll also examine why Digital Prototypings are disruptors, highlighting knowledge gaps, process flaws, and data ownership issues. This session will provide a framework to rethink how you capture, structure, and deliver building data—not just for project closeout, but for long-term operational value.

The Power of Autodesk Forma Assets
If assets are managed, they can become really important in any building project. You can use the information for progress tracking, evidence capture, asset data capture, linked data, and much more. In this session, you’ll see how you can use the Assets module in Autodesk Forma to benefit contractors and owner operators. In the United Kingdom, a new fire safety bill is being introduced. See how you can capture, store, and manage all fire-stopping evidence to meet the new building regulations. But, assets do not have to be part of the building. See how site personnel, temporary equipment, and site management can all use assets to bring benefits to the jobsite. See how we can reuse the data in the new digital twin platform Autodesk Tandem.

Implementing a Facilities Data Spec with Autodesk Tandem
Firms use different facilities data standards for classifying building data and parameters used in the modeling process. Autodesk Tandem technology focuses on normalizing the data to meet owner requirements. As data is captured or created during a project, it will be normalized into the digital twin via classification schemes specified by the facility owner. Autodesk Tandem is establishing a workflow to specify the project's operational and data requirements in collaboration with the facility owner. This helps ensure that data is captured seamlessly during design and construction while the project team verifies completeness at each milestone. This enables a highly accurate digital twin that can be commissioned and handed over in an easily repeatable way. This class will focus on the specific data an owner needs to operate and maintain a building. We’ll discuss the workflows and questions to ask owner’s facility teams for the successful implementation of Autodesk Tandem.

Digital Transformation for Corporate Real Estate Management (CREM)
See how to maximize technology convergence from a digital twin over the entire building assets and operations lifecycle. There are many key topics related to corporate real estate management (CREM). Real estate has a substantial effect on all three main financial statements (cash flow, income, and balance sheet), and is one of the largest costs for manufacturing companies outside of material and personnel. CREM influences tactical operational performances such as labor productivity, well-being, satisfaction, and motivation, as well as strategic ones such as corporate identity fit. For brownfield projects, the aim is to achieve an optimum of the lowest possible vacancy rate, as well as flexibility and adaptability to changes in the company. Technology solutions for CREM are improving project collaboration, energy consumption, and space management, with a proven ROI that includes 10% space reduction of the entire portfolio, 18% reduction in non-value-adding tasks in facility management, and 3% reduction in construction material cost.

Digital Twins from the Air Down
When reading modern engineering articles about infrastructure and the built environment, it is difficult to find an occurance where Digital Twins are not mentioned. By all accounts, a digital twin of a fixed asset or real-world system is immensely valuable and can be used to support a number of use cases. But, building a digital twin requires a significant amount of data. So, how does one start to build a digital twin? Three-dimensional (3D) basemaps produced from high resolution aerial imagery serve as the foundation and fabric for digital twins. Automated feature extraction from AI uniquely identifies critical infrastructure and can be used to grow an urban digital twin, removes the guess work and shortening the digital twin development time. For engineering professionals interested in exploring the world of digital twins, Nearmap offers a variety of foundational products for getting started.
