ONUMA BIM app for iPhone and iPad

The free ONUMA BIM™ mobile app enables ONUMA System™ users to load and access Building Information Models (BIM) from the ONUMA BIM Server. Building Informed Environments is easy with ONUMA BIM. Users of many skill levels can connect to BIM using a simple interface. View buildings on maps, floor plans, room plans, equipment and furniture. Work with a single building or a portfolio of buildings. Connect to other BIM applications such as SketchUp, Revit, ArchiCAD, and IFC-based BIM, through the web based ONUMA System.

From the ONUMA BIM app, access the web-based ONUMA System with a free account to create projects. Use the ONUMA System to create BIM + GIS data and connect to other applications. Users without an ONUMA System license can view ONUMA BIM projects shared by other users. From ONUMA BIM add comments that get submitted back to the owner of the project.

On typical design projects, architects and builders use powerful desktop BIM applications like Revit and ArchiCAD. Now other stakeholders in the design process can view and interact with BIMs created by desktop applications and loaded into the ONUMA System BIM Server without needing to be BIM experts. The ONUMA BIM application can subscribe to projects that are shared by the owner of the project.

ONUMA BIM and the ONUMA System support the entire lifecycle of projects from early planning, blocking, stacking and generating BIMs from owner requirement data. The model in the ONUMA System can be used to run through many scenarios in a lightweight format to confirm the design intent works and to rapidly compare options. The resulting BIM can be shared in real-time with ONUMA BIM. As the design progresses the data that is assembled in the requirement model can be linked to other BIM applications such as Revit. During the design process the data can be used to compare progress to the original design intent. At the end of the design process the design BIM can be connected back to the ONUMA System to be used for facilities management or connected to other facility management applications through web-services and open standards such as COBie. The management of building data through this entire life cycle can get complex and large very quickly. The ONUMA BIM app and the ONUMA System provide a common interface to allow all stakeholders and tools to connect and collaborate.
