  2. EPM Technology Jotne EPM Technology a member of the Jotne Group, specialising in information technology Since 1990 the company has developed database solutions to handle product models for the Built Environment, Aeronautics, Oil&Gas, Space and Defence Standards; buildingSMART and ISO 10303 - STEP, PLCS, etc. Jotne has a staff of about 200 persons, and its IT products are used by clients all over the world

  3. Agenda • Building Smart, EDMModelServer, architecture and tools • BIM terms • EDMModelServerManager overview • ModelServerManager installation • ModelServerManagerIFC functionallity • Browse, report, 3D viewer • Check in/Check out • Management of a EDMModelServer in general • Organisation of data • User, groups, ownership and access rights • Methods (Schemata) • Close future • IFD • Full IDM support

  4. Large Hospital Project (AHUS), About $ 1,2 Billion using IFC

  5. StatsbyggDirectorate of public Construction and PropertyHITOS and HIBO pilot projects

  6. ForsvarsbyggNorwegian Defence Estates AgencyPilot project at Håkonsvern in Bergen

  7. Software VendorsMake your software compatible with buildingSMART • EDMsdk™ software development kits: • EDMconnector™ is a license free library for IFC-ready applications to connect to any number of EDMmodelServer™/IFC on the web • EDMdesktop™ is a library for exchanging data between an IFC database and the building application

  8. Solution ProvidersOffer buildingSMART 3D BIM services to market • A semantically rich BIM enables services for: • project hotels manage true BIM information • product catalogue services doing drag-and drop of all information to the BIM • knowledge systems • material and element databases for classification and specification systems • Analysis and simulation to make better decisions for more accurate budgets and plans • automated checks • building regulation • energy performance • accessibility design • company and project quality metrics The service provider will implement services as methods in the EDMmodelServer™/IFC using our powerful data manipulation language. The services can be made available as web services either from own servers or licensed to client servers. Full integrity of intellectual property rights are guaranted. Service providers should especially take a look at the following products: • EDMmodelServer™/IFC for BIM Management • EDMdeveloper™ - the software development kit for serverside application

  9. What is modelserver? • Storing (large quantities) • Sharing • Immediate access to large resident models (no file upload) • Views, partial datasets • Extract diract through views • Integrity, consistency • Validation • Merge • Search engine • Ownership and protection • Workflow • Analysis • Calculation • Versioning • Transactions

  10. Important terms • STEP, IFC and Express (ISO Standards), IAI, STEP (standardisation Organisations) • Express Schema, Query schema (STEP, EDM) • Methods (EDM Model Server term) • Repository (STEP, EDM term) • Model (STEP, EDM term) • Instance, aggregate and attribute (STEP, EDM term) • Object oriented (database) • IFCObject, IFCElement, IFCRelation, IFCProperty (IFC terms) • Global Unique ID (GUID) • Partial model • Check-Out / Get-Out / Check-In • Merge • IDM (Informatil Delivery Manual) • Exchange Requirement (IDM term) • IFD library (http://www.ifd-library.com/) • IFD Consept (Subject, Property, Unit, Nest, Bag, Value)
