Description
Summary:Unlike traditional modelling, Building Information Models (BIMs) are a developing standard which has the capacity to support various value add opportunities like utility and environmental simulations. We will demonstrate a system that utilises BIMs to generate an edge and node graph. This graph will utilise knowledge from the physical security domain to highlight weaknesses in a facilities design. We intend for this system to aid designers from an early stage, allowing for a more accessible application of security knowledge.
