Abstract

With the concepts of Smart City attracting the industry, the method of managing spatial information has become a hot research topic. Relating to this topic, GIS and BIM are two critical technologies. Although the application of GIS has a long history and BIM has also developed for over 10 years, their integrated application starts a new direction and is still at the early exploration stage. To better understand this newly expanded field, we review previous works in the field from the perspective of research and relevant application platform. Based on that, directions of future research are discussed.
