Configuring BIM Viewer for AppSuite
Before you can configure the BIM settings for Planon AppSuite, make sure you meet the following preconditions:
• You have configured the BIM Exchange functionality in Planon Web Client. This means that Planon data on buildings / assets is linked a BIM 3D-model.
• You have exported the BIM GUIDs from Revit to Planon. BIM GUIDs enable end users to make selections and retrieve information in BIM Viewer.
| See the BIM - Installation and Configuration Guide, BIM Requirements and BIM Exchange user documentation for more information. |
| AppSuite can only display BIM models that are configured in Planon ProCenter . AppSuite does not support BIM models in SVF2 format. |
In most Planon AppSuite modules, where relevant, end users can use the BIM Viewer feature to view 3D-models of buildings and their assets. In Planon ProCenter, BIM Viewer is available as a special view on the Assets selection level.
If your Planon environments meet the above pre-conditions, you can start preparing your Revit files for conversion to a 3D-model that can be displayed in the Planon AppSuite or in
Planon ProCenter >
