Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Urban rail transportation construction and maintenance face challenges due to large construction scales, complex data management, and poor data sharing across disciplines, leading to inefficiencies and safety concerns, as traditional methods like BIM are limited to aboveground structures and fail to integrate full-cycle data.
Innovation Solution
A platform and method integrating Geographic Information System (GIS) and Building Information Modeling (BIM) for intelligent management of rail transportation work, enabling data sharing and fusion between 3D geological management platforms and BIM models, supporting construction and maintenance phases with progress control, safety, and risk management.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If traditional BIM model technology is used for construction information management, then three-dimensional display of design scheme is achieved, but it cannot realize control of construction progress and quality, and cannot integrate full cycle data of construction, operation and maintenance
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges GIS (Geographic Information System) and BIM (Building Information Modeling) technologies to create an integrated platform. The GIS-BIM integration module combines spatial location data from GIS with detailed building information from BIM models, enabling both three-dimensional display and comprehensive control of construction progress, quality, and full-cycle data integration across construction, operation, and maintenance phases
Solution Approach 2:
The platform is designed with multi-functionality to serve multiple purposes: it provides three-dimensional visualization, controls construction progress and quality, manages equipment and materials during operation, and maintains historical data for traceability. The system integrates information from diverse sources including geological data, construction documents, equipment records, and maintenance logs into a unified management platform
2Loss of information
If completion acceptance data transfer mode is used, then data transfer between construction and operation stages is achieved, but process and historical data transfer in construction stage is difficult to realize, affecting risk control traceability
Solution Approach 1:
The platform establishes continuous data transfer and storage mechanisms throughout the entire lifecycle. Construction data is continuously collected, stored, and linked to equipment information, creating an unbroken data chain from construction through operation to maintenance. This continuous action ensures that process data and historical information remain accessible and traceable, enabling reliable risk control and problem investigation
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements feedback mechanisms that allow operation and maintenance data to feed back into construction phase analysis. Historical problem traceability is enabled through feedback loops that compare as-built conditions with design intentions, allowing identification of deviations and root causes. This feedback mechanism ensures data integrity and traceability across all project phases
3Device complexity
If separate management of construction and operation data is implemented, then construction phase control is simplified, but data sharing and integration between disciplines is poor, affecting work efficiency and safety
Solution Approach 1:
The platform segments data management into distinct but interconnected modules: construction information management, operation and maintenance management, and data sharing integration. Each module handles specific data types and processes independently, simplifying control while maintaining integration capabilities through standardized interfaces and data exchange protocols
Solution Approach 2:
The GIS-BIM integration platform serves as an intermediary that mediates between different disciplinary data systems. It provides standardized data formats, common reference frames, and unified access mechanisms that enable efficient data sharing between construction, operation, and maintenance departments, improving integration without overwhelming individual modules
