Can We All Speak the Same Language? How to Ensure Data Exchange Integrity.

This class will be all about defining a common way to exchange data between different authoring tools. In the era of big data and with the increased complexity of projects, how can we ensure that the transfer of design data is consistent and free from data loss? There have been many attempts to come up with a common strategy for the industry. The reality is that usually none of them fit what we’re looking for. Let’s have a look together at what’s already available (Speckle, BHoM, and so on). Maybe what you need already exists. We can come up with some semantic strategy to define the language that works for your company (or that has worked for AECOM). We’ll finish up with some best practice on how to create add-ins, Dynamo custom nodes, and repositories to support the data exchange—as well as how to use the power of Autodesk Design Automation to create data-driven models in a click!
