Abstract
As people spend a lot of their time indoors and with the growth of IoT devices, there is evidence of increased use of smart devices to improve the indoor experience. A location-specific IoT hack is where the IoT hack is applied in an ad hoc fashion to a precise place or location. But the transportability of successful hacks from the original property to another site is not always straightforward, particularly when some equipment has been partially configured with device names and network addresses that differ from the original property configuration. A large portion of the challenge also relates to the variation in room names, quantities and transitions between rooms that make up a dwelling. This paper examines the use of Building Information Model (BIM) file frameworks and demonstrates that these files can be augmented to include preconfigured component identification and pathways at the BIM design phase. The outcome is a more portable and automated way to digitize the floor plan space by exploring the intersection between BIM, IoT, spatial and temporal aspects in the context of smart building design.
