Workflow
Electronic storage and processing of data and models
for the lifespan of the structure – from the first design through construction to operation and maintenance
Communication
Possibility to share the data between all systems working with BIM
4D model
3D model of a structure with gradual changes over time
Workflow
Basic part of our approach to BIM is the Stratigraphy software with other programs following. In the software, we start with collecting information and data about the location and continue to create a 3D model. Example of a workflow can include:
- Loading current and historical maps of the locality
- Loading geodetically surveyed terrain points
- Loading existing boreholes and field test from public online sources
- Definition of the planned site investigation and sending data to a mobile device
- Upload of data about the site investigation from the mobile device, loading images and videos
- Correction of boreholes and field tests, creating a report about the geological investigation
- Loading data from the laboratory
- Definition of soil profiles by interpreting the field tests
- Creating geotechnical types of soils and rocks
- Creating geological cross sections (fence diagrams)
- Creating a 3D model from the cross sections
- Calculating the parameters of the geotechnical types using the model
- Exporting the 3D model, soil profiles, cross sections to other programs for geotechnical calculations

Communication
The GEO5 programs are not only able to communicate between each other, but also with many other programs.
- Import and export tables and text files of many types (XLSX, ODS, TXT)
- Load special data formats (eg. field test data – CPT, DMT, SPT, …)
- Load objects created in other programs (DXF, DWG, LandXML)
- Use global standards (AGS and in the future DIGGS)
- Share data in standard formats into other programs (DXF, DWG, IFC, LandXML, XLSX, ODS)
DXF data import
IFC export from the program
Export to AutoCAD
4D model
- The basis of the modelling is creation of a 3D subsoil model, which is then used for further modelling
- In different construction stages, it is possible to model earthworks or add objects (structures)
- In individual GEO5 programs, it is also possible to model the progress of the construction

Earthworks
BIM mainly provides big time savings and storage of all data in one place. It remains clear, how the data was processed, how it was simplified and interpreted.
