Issues:
- Automation difficulties
- Interpretation (‘post-processing’, ‘cleaning the data’, …)
- Level of Detail and Level of Certainty

existing building interventions", Structural Survey, in press.
But what about the BIM model?
Why did we go through so much trouble in the
first place?
BIM FOR THE BUILDING LIFE-CYCLE

1. high modeling / conversion effort from captured
building data into semantic BIM objects,
2. updating of information in BIM, and
3. handling of uncertain data, objects and relations
in BIM occurring in existing buildings.
BIM for existing buildings
