About BIM Exchange
BIM Exchange is a navigation group that allows you to exchange specific BIM (Building Information Modeling) data (from BIM source files) with Planon ProCenter. BIM 3D models represent the physical, technical and functional characteristics of a building, for example a floor plan and construction details.
BIM Exchange is part of a wider BIM solution that is a co-development by Planon and the Cadac Group. For this solution Planon has developed several Enterprise Talk scripts to import and export BIM data. Cadac has developed a Revit add-on, which makes it possible to map the Revit model onto Planon data and to export/import alphanumeric data between the Revit model and Planon.
