http://bimserver.org/about/philosophy/
Our mission is to help all actors in the Architectural, Engineering and
Construction (AEC) industry to collaborate more efficiently and
effectively (and thereby creating better buildings for lower costs).
Our goal is to create the favorite software solution for collaboration in
the AEC-industry.
Our values are the core principles that define everything we do:
Innovation
Reliable
Responsibility
Commercial

WhatBIMserver is….
Open and stable core to use and build on top
Open interface, lots of networkprotocols (rest, soap, PB, json)
Pluginframework
Extensions / notification
ObjectIDMs
Database interfaces
Client libraries
Highlyflexibleconfiguration
Open source
etc…

6. Léon van Berlo M.Sc.BIMserver.org
How that looks in a schema
(examplefor export – serialisation)
ServiceInterface(4 protocols)
Object EMF
Serializer Database
IDM core
ruleset
Merge
Renderer Boolean
algorithm
(satellite?)
Configurable per user/project/server

PubSub / federation of BIM engineering
ART of BIM (Automatic RevisionTransformation of BIM)
Satellite server concept
Patent pending
First production „satellite server‟ is COBie server (USACE)
More examples in progress…
Clash detection server
PNG producer
BOM extractor
CO2 life cycle calculator
Manymany (many!) more….

Stuff tothinkabout…

32. Léon van Berlo M.Sc.BIMserver.org
National BIMserver pilot
ECPPM paper 2012
Conclusions:
People love (need) redundancy in their data!
There is no óne single repository/model
It is notabout the data/model
(and some more conclusionsthat are veryinteresting!)
Everyone has different ideasabout even most basic issues…
BIMserver is an open platform to configure/use “as youlike”

33. Léon van Berlo M.Sc.BIMserver.org
Our BIGGEST issues….

Some of the smaller issues….

36. Léon van Berlo M.Sc.BIMserver.org

37. Léon van Berlo M.Sc.BIMserver.org
Challenge to get these small issues growbigger….
(and get more of them)
