Empowering Designers with Data

The design process has undergone significant changes in the last decade. Building information modeling (BIM) has revolutionized the way professionals design, plan, and manage projects. However, despite the numerous advantages of BIM, there is still untapped potential in the data generated throughout the design process. Analyzing data from Revit software and other sources can help designers make informed decisions about a design, ensuring that it meets the project's goals and objectives. Moreover, data empowers designers to explore more design options, and AI-assisted generative design tools can analyze data and provide optimized solutions. The data is stored in a centralized cloud database that's easily accessible, enabling the designers to quickly access and analyze it, making the design process more efficient. In this class, we'll identify four key phases to successfully capturing design data on projects: connection/integration, data syncing, visualization, and monitoring.
