And integrating this data into BIM models helps visualize system performance and identify potential issues. I am intrigued to know more about your insights on best practices for using IoT sensors and BIM data in MEP systems and facility maintenance. How do you deploy these advanced tools into your construction and design execution phase? Your insights are valuable thank you.</P> Fri, 06 Sep 2024 12:26:20 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/bim-360-glue-forum/what-are-the-best-practices-for-using-iot-sensors-and-bim-data/m-p/13004813#M2 steinryan28 2024-09-06T12:26:20Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/bim-360-glue-forum/what-are-the-best-practices-for-using-iot-sensors-and-bim-data/m-p/13868267#M3383 <P>I’ve worked on a few projects where IoT and BIM were linked for MEP monitoring, and honestly, the success came down to how early we planned the data structure.
