Abstract
In recent decades, technological advancements have led to the introduction of wearable computing devices allowing visualization using virtual, augmented, and mixed reality. The Architecture, Engineering, and Construction industry has seen an increase in the use of such wearable technology, especially with the introduction of information modeling. Building Information Modeling (BIM) has been used extensively on vertical construction projects to better communicate information among project stakeholders and facilitate the construction process. More recently, infrastructure projects started using information modeling along with Geographic Information Systems (GIS) on local or cloud services. The integration of GIS and BIM has the potential to improve the construction process and aid in decision-making, especially when combined with newer visualization techniques. This paper presents a platform for GIS and BIM integration in Mixed Reality. The proposed application will allow a seamless transfer of data from BIM and GIS software into game engines, and the visualization of the BIM-GIS integration on Microsoft HoloLens 2. The application will allow users not only to visualize models, but to explore information in model elements, and make model changes in the mixed reality environment.
