DEVELOPMENT OF A WEB PLATFORM TO VISUALIZE PS-INSAR DATA IN A BUILDING INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Abstract

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a widely used approach in construction project management, providing a detailed and integrated view of a building’s physical and functional characteristics. However, BIM models can be further improved by incorporating data from remote sensing techniques such as Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PSI), which provides information on ground deformation and movement. In this paper, we present a methodology for integrating PSI data into BIM models using the industry foundation class (IFC) format and presenting it in a custom web platform. We use SAR data and PSI processing to obtain deformation information, generate an IFC compatible model, cluster PS points, and create a custom web platform for data presentation. The proposed approach has the potential to improve construction project management by providing a more comprehensive understanding of a building’s behavior and enabling stakeholders to make informed decisions based on remote sensing data.
