Abstract
The building information is invaluable in the facility management industry in order to provide and deliver a timely and professional analysis and consulting support for more effective management services, (e.g. energy management). Nowadays, buildings are equipped with immense number of Internet of Things (IoT) and smart devices. These devices are producing a vast amount of live data about the building. Typically, the captured information from different information sources are stored in heterogeneous repositories. Various information resources together with the live data can be used by the facility management industry to speed up the maintenance processes and improve efficiency of services. To provide more added-value services, they can also benefit from integration of the building information with the live data. There is no doubt that integrating the information can provide value; nonetheless, there are some barriers and considerations when combining the building information with the live data. This prevents many industries like the facility management industry to fully benefit from this integration. In this paper, we introduce the existing barriers to integrate information and live data from the academia and industry perspectives. Subsequently, a potential approach is proposed to make the integration of the building information with the live data possible. The approach is in the form of a three-phase process and its usability is demonstrated by a few use-cases. The output of the process will be beneficial for diverse ranges of users, e.g. the facility management industry.
