With your support, the Linked Building Data Community Group has been launched:
http://www.w3.org/community/lbd/
To join:
http://www.w3.org/community/lbd/join
This group was originally proposed on 2014-06-26
by Kris McGlinn. The following people supported its
creation:
Kris McGlinn
Pieter Pauwels
Michael Petychakis
Jakob Beetz
Seppo Törmä
--------------------
This group brings together experts in the area of building information
modelling (BIM) and Web of Data technologies to define existing and
future use cases and requirements for linked data based applications
across the life cycle of buildings. A list of recommended use cases will
be produced by this community group.
The envisioned target beneficiaries of this group are both industrial
and governmental organisations who use data from building information
modelling applications and other data related to the building life cycle
(sensor data, GIS data, material data, geographical data, and so forth)
to achieve their business processes and whom will benefit from greater
integration of data and interoperability between their data sets and the
wider linked data communities. For example, benefit may be obtained by
publishing and combining localised data on new cheaper building
materials, energy efficient building devices and systems, along with
real time data on weather patterns, energy prices and geodata. By making
this data available to applications, they will be better able to support
decision makers during the whole of the building life cycle, which
includes design, construction, commissioning, operation,
retrofitting/refurbishment/reconfiguration, demolition, and recycling of
buildings.
The group will engage with these beneficiaries through surveys and
events organised in conjunction with the affiliated workshop series on
Linked Data for Architecture and Construction (LDAC).
