HIL 3D Space Model

With the aim of capturing the knowledge developed collaboratively in a digital form, the planning team has been building a “digital twin” of the HIL building since the start of the project. The model represents not only the geometry of the existing structure, but also includes information on usage, daylight, and building components. This allows us to gain a better understanding of what is happening where in the building at any given time. It also reveals connections that are not apparent in everyday use.

Based on the digital building model, studies are conducted and different scenarios are tested. With the help of virtual and extended reality, these can be experienced at the HIL at full scale.

The platform used allows the planning team to develop their own interfaces and to program specific parts of the model. This enables targeted collaborations with other planners as well as with research and teaching projects. Input projects based on the HIL 3D spatial model:
