METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING AN UPDATED DIGITAL BUILDING MODEL

摘要

A method for providing an updated digital building model is provided. The method includes the following steps: a) providing a digital building model for a physical building, b) ascertaining a virtually accessible area within the digital building model, c) capturing real data obtained by a number N of data sources, where N≥1, wherein the real data include data from a real accessible area within the physical building that corresponds to the virtually accessible area, and d) updating the virtually accessible area within the digital building model by the captured real data of the real accessible area to provide the updated digital building model. This means that when there is a need to evacuate a physical building, there are updated virtually accessible areas present, and hence these can be taken as a basis for providing an updated evacuation plan for evacuating people.
