OpenInfra

• Egis is an engineering and consulting group active in infrastructure and systems for transport, development, industry, water, environment and energy.

• Egis also works in project management and road and airport operation.

• 11 000 people

• Subsidiary of the Caisse des Dépôts

OpenInfra Keys figures 2010

Decisions:

OpenInfra as the right name

a steering committee

To work under Workshops on :

1. definition and dictionary

2. Scope

3. levels of definition

To investigate deeper on several topics: IFC Bridge, INSPIRE, etc..

•First IFC Infra meeting in Paris -8 july 2011

– Compared to Communic one:

• The project

OpenInfra

• Process map:

– Out put and deliverables :

• Exchange Requirements and business Rules

• Exchange requirements model

• As a first step for a generic BIM guide for Infra

• Catalogue

– The goal:

• To be able to focalise on the object to be built

OpenInfra

• The experimentation:

– Levels of definition

– INSPIRE connection

• IFC Bridge/ tunnels:

– Andre borman experimentation

• ..\munich\IfcBridge2SOFiSTiK_TSCC.avi

– Pr Yabuki presentation

• ..\SC2012_02_14\OpneINFRA YABUKI Product Models for Civil Infrastructues.pdf

OpenInfra

• IFC Bridge/ tunnels /keys issues:

– Create group to review the ifc-bridge and ifc-tunnel models and create a synthesis.

– Invite buildingsmart MSG to review this synthesis and indicate a cost of integration.

– Seek sponsorship for the work.

OpenInfra

• INSPIRE and IFC key issues:

– A catalogue

– Objects, data and metadata

– Compliant with level1 and level2 COmmunic levels of definition

– A technical opportunity

– To investigate on IFC/INSPIRE compliance and quick experimentation

OpenInfra

• The key words:

•The full lifecycle management (PLM & PDM)

•The Information Modeling (BIM to Infra IM)

•Communication and sharing

•nD mock-up ( rather than 3D )
