Recently, I reached out on Twitter (@ShaanHurley) to connect with people that were Esri or Autodesk customers and making use of the Autodesk & Esri Collaboration to better understand this by my team. One Esri customer Greg Jameson a GIS Specialist contacted me. I asked if I could share their feedback publicly.

“We have been working & playing with BIM to GIS since last summer when Esri launched Pro 2.3 with direct Revit reads. I had the opportunity to speak at two conferences this Spring on BIM to GIS – first at Midwest University to let BIM managers understand what happens and the other at NE GIS/LIS to get city/county/state people to ask for Revit data on public projects.

The Autodesk – Esri partnership opens the door for non-Revit users to experience and leverage the data within it. Non-technical staff can open a website and view a building using the GIS platform. Your Revit models are much more valuable now!” 

Please email me if you are also importing Revit BIM data into your Esri GIS maps and willing to speak with me and my team.

Thank you,
Shaan
