ANALYSIS OF METHODS OF SEARCH, EXTRACTION AND DATA PROCESSING IN THE AUTODESK REVIT SYSTEM

Abstract

Effective management of construction investment projects is based on a comprehensive analysis of data in real time, this applies to both their structure and components. Building information, a critical aspect of the urban environment, is undergoing a digital transformation thanks to the widespread adoption of Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology. BIM serves as the core of the database in the digital representation of the building, covering all stages of the life cycle of the building object, namely: design, construction, operation, repair and restoration works, disposal, etc.

And also in the results of this study there is an overview of methods of analysis and transfer of data contained in BIM models. Focusing on the Autodesk Revit software platform, the authors present their own experience, the results of research into some algorithms for methods of data search, extraction and processing. Along with in-depth mastering of the potential functionality of Revit's built-in toolkit, it is proposed to expand it based on additional custom modules written in the following programming languages: C# and Python.

Also, in the results of this research, attention is focused on aspects of the productivity of using the proposed methods in standard tasks when exporting data. The focus of research is also the integration of external programs (with the help of plugins) to expand the possibilities of automated data collection.

Using the capabilities of BIM, the proposed options, according to the authors, will allow building trajectories to the development of intelligent and controlled project management systems. Special attention is also paid to the creation of macros and scripts to automate routine processes and reduce data processing time. Several approaches to programming new information model search, extraction, and data processing features are explored, including plug-in capabilities and Dynamo usage. Using the integrated Revit development environment and creating specialized applications allows you to significantly improve the efficiency of construction project management, ensuring the reliability and accuracy of the obtained results, especially when transferring them to other software complexes.

The results of these studies demonstrate the importance of the introduction of innovative technologies and tools in the field of construction information modeling, primarily because on its basis it becomes possible to organize construction and operation on a fundamentally new basis; at the same time, it is significantly more rational and efficient.
