1 Building Geo-Registered Port & Harbor BIM s David Colleen CEO Planet 9 Studios dcolleen@planet9.com

2 Working With Standards Web 3D Consortium Digital Earth with SRI

3 The Fox in the Hen House The AEC industry has been presented with a number of revolutionary concepts that promised to increase both profit and productivity. Often these big ideas were marketing driven and did not map well into real world needs Smart Buildings 1988 CADD / Cost Estimating D Solids Modeling / CADD

4 How Do We Avoid These Problems? Begin by Understanding the User Work Process What is Their Pain How Can Standards Help? Develop Use Cases Develop Best Practices Educate Evangelize

5 Goal of This Presentation This presentation will provide a high-level overview of the production process used by Planet 9 Studios to create high-fidelity geo-referenced BIM models of waterside facilities for the WSS AT/FP Project.
