Online BIM for Geospatial Professionals Training

‘New for 2020: This course is aligned to the New UK BIM Framework Learning Outcomes’

Who is this for?

This course is for existing Geospatial and Geomatics Professionals, such as CAD modellers, GIS, mapping, survey professionals, who wants to learn more about BIM and Digital Engineering.

Your experience level with wider BIM concepts:

Novice (little experience) to Advanced beginner

Course Style:

Classroom Seminar (tutor taught with interactive sessions) and Post-course online Consultation. This course is not a hands-on technical training session.

What we cover on the day:

Overview to Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Digital Engineering concepts
Overview to Whole-Life Asset Management (PAS 55 & ISO 55000) concepts
Common Data Environments (CDEs) Vs Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDIs)
3D Visualisation – requirements for ‘BIM Level 2’
What is meant by ‘BIM Level 2’, ‘BIM Level 3’ etc
Open BIM Data Standards e.g. IFC, COBie
Introduction to UK Government BIM Standards – BS/PAS 1192 Suite
How Geospatial adds value to BIM
Data and Asset Classifications (Taxonomies)
Web GIS as “a way in” – opportunities to link with BIM concepts
Collaboration and Information Sharing – what’s the best approach?
Where Information Management skills are used
How GIS, CAD and Survey data is adding value
The challenges of understanding across teams – how we tackle them
Making the business case for ‘Geospatial’ (inc. CAD & survey, not only GIS)
Understand how ‘Geospatial’ and spatial is part of BIM
Information Management (IM) and the value of GIS skills
High-Accuracy Data Collection – integrated workflows (ZenoCollector used as an example)
Metadata – how do we embed this?
Information Portals – Mapping Portals and others for ‘BIM’
The changing role of GIS, CAD and survey professionals
How to embed innovation and improvement
Understanding your role and how you add value to your organisation
