The subject provides another opportunity for observing and using BIM software platforms in extended applications. The subject is taught in a highly interactive environment. It is dedicated to aspects of utilising BIM software in GIS application and introduces students to GIS applications via a specific practical exercise with a focus on the use of data in the broader application of urban design and architectural master planning.
