FireRevit: Using Revit files to identify the room locations of fires and escape routes

Anonymous — Sun, 18 Oct 2020 16:14:26 GMT

FireRevit is software that parses Revit files in order to map from a location given as (latitude, longitude, height) to a Revit room identifier.
FireRevit also combines the Revit file and information about which rooms are inaccessible in an emergency to guide residents to the nearest exit by giving a route map.

Our application use case is firefighting where drones identify the locations of rooms having fires both to direct firefighters to rooms on fire and to help residents escape.

We believe this could be useful in general for Revit users.
