Abstract

BIMoPOLIS emerges as an idea, awarded with a Spin-Off prize, based on the development of digital content in the field of architecture and infrastructures, making use of the latest technologies in the fields of surveying, modeling in three dimensions (3D), geolocation and virtual and augmented reality (VR) (AR).

The objective of these digital contents is their inclusion in applications designed to transform the way in which management and maintenance operations in these areas are carried out, optimizing protocols in search of the concept of Smart City.

To this end, the usual procedure involves raising and geopositioning the infrastructure in question, and then incorporating the relevant information for routine maintenance operations such as measurements, materials, distributors’ contact information, prices, detail views, or other indicators of interest to the 3D model.

The linking of these data to the virtual model entails numerous advantages since, through the use of a single application, it is possible to report incidents, locate faults, contact operators and suppliers, report finished jobs, etc., resulting in great savings in time and costs of management and communication in maintenance operations.

This article focuses on the first project developed by BIMoPOLIS, commissioned by the Vice-rectorate of Smart-Campus of the University of Málaga (UMA) and consisting of arboreal geo-positioning and linking of an interactive database to a building information model depicting the main section of the boulevard Louis Pasteur, located in the Teatinos Campus.
