Digital Twin for BIM-FM Data Comparison: A Decision Support System Based on Graphical Interfaces

The paper investigates the integration of BIM, Digital Twin technologies, Extended Reality (XR), and graphical interfaces for facility management and maintenance support in complex buildings. The research proposes a methodological framework describing the evolution of BIM models from physical twins to as-built, as-is, record, and FM-oriented digital twin models. The study explores the use of desktop graphical interfaces, 360° photo comparison systems, augmented reality, and virtual reality applications to inspect, compare, update, and manage BIM-based information. The proposed workflow aims to improve decision support systems for maintenance operations, data reliability, and operational awareness in the AECO sector through interactive and immersive visualization environments.
