Purpose In the digital era, there is a growing interest in integrating building information modeling (BIM) and geographic system (GIS) technologies throughout construction lifecycle, including design, construction, operation, maintenance demolition, using interoperable technologies. This study aims to provide holistic assessment of potential BIM/GIS integration improve quality by comprehensively analyzing literature reveal application areas, opportunities, most urgent problems/obstacles, technical solutions, gaps future directions for construction. Design/methodology/approach review seeks answers five identified research questions conducts systematic process that includes content analysis bibliometric 141 articles published between 2007 2024 from Scopus database. Findings Integrated reveals leading topics cutting-edge technologies, lifecycle management, data disaster urban management activities (type location), are gaining significant momentum. Additionally, such as circularity, cultural heritage, waste, safety, life cycle (LCA) supply chain remain open further exploration. The results indicate challenge lies converting geometric semantic Industry Foundation Classes (IFC)/City Geography Markup Language (CityGML) or shapefile formats BIM/GIS. consensus suggests utilizing single/third-party platform, with Infraworks software being prominent option. Originality/value offers practical recommendations tackle current challenges based on analyses conducted while highlighting should aim integrate BIM/GIS-enabled twins buildings cities.

Comprehensive Analysis of Scheduling Processes in Road Intersections: Associating Deficiencies and Their Consequences in Colombian Projects

Applied Sciences, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 15(9), P. 4614 - 4614

Published: April 22, 2025

Road intersection projects are crucial for road infrastructure networks’ safe and efficient operation. Despite their importance, the construction of these faces significant challenges, such as delays, cost overruns, litigation. Several causal factors phenomena have been identified being associated with schedule planning process. However, more studies need to be conducted analyze process in detail. Therefore, purpose this paper is projects, emphasizing identifying associating deficiencies consequences on Colombian projects. The research method comprises three main stages: (1) identification processes, (2) relation causes (3) analysis A total 29 processes were identified, which 22 deficiency assigned based interviews ten experts. influence budget deviations was analyzed study 25 intersections. results show that lack experience planner poor estimation material quantities strongly generation Thus, contributes improving by shortcomings can lead deviations.

Integration of Building Information Modeling and Geographic Information Systems for Efficient Airport Construction Management

Future Transportation, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 5(2), P. 55 - 55

Published: May 1, 2025

This study analyzes the use of new technologies, such as building information modeling (BIM), to simplify process management in Architecture, Engineering, and Construction sector. By providing dynamic, realistic system models, BIM enables innovative collaboration within a common data environment. In that context, this focuses on operational construction sites. Recognizing limitations for spatial analyses, research integrates geographic systems (GIS) through three-phase methodology: (a) development models; (b) definition GIS; (c) BIM-GIS integration. To demonstrate effectiveness methodology, applies it case managing an airport site, focusing obstacles hazards air navigation. However, methodology identified is generalizable could be adapted other applications with proper calibration required parameters. The application highlights potential integrating GIS systems, particularly safety management. inherent structural differences between two often require model simplifications, especially complex projects. also reveals GIS-BIM interoperability not always seamless, emphasizing need further enhance integration processes improve compatibility future applications.
