A Linked Data based approach was also investigated, So it was an example of something that should be made possible by Linked Data: combining data from different domains. A known but difficult problem arises when this is tried: the information models and data formats for geometry in BIM and GIS are fundamentally different. Even when GIS and BIM data are made available as Linked Data, their geometric data are not interoperable.
