BIMobject AB: BIMobject releases API for its cloud platform
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Today, BIMobject AB (BIMobject) announces the release of its Application Program
Interface (API) for the cloud-based platform BIMobject(®) Cloud. The release of
the API will allow manufacturers, software developers, and other solution
providers to build seamless data integrations with the BIMobject(®) Cloud.
For building product manufacturers, the release of the API opens up a large
number of new opportunities to make use of the BIM content hosted in the
BIMobject(®) Cloud. Manufacturers can now integrate their BIM objects and
product information seamlessly into their own websites and build integrations
with e-commerce solutions and any other applications that can connect through
API.
"The release of the API means our platform now allows for application-to-
application communication, while maintaining the vital and central role as
Single Source of Truth, ensuring that the information is not changed or
duplicated, but can be trusted to be correct and updated", says Ben O'Donnell,
Chief Technology Officer at BIMobject.
For suppliers and distributors, the release of the API means they can now fetch
product information to enrich their own e-commerce solutions. For information
brokers, it means they can add value to their communities by adding download
capabilities, product information, and 3D previews.
"Connecting to the API allows manufacturers to build any type of web-based
catalogue, that will be totally synchronised with the BIMobject(® )database and
therefore always accurate and up to date. Supply chain companies, distributors
and resellers can build advanced product catalogues with their own front end,
and integrate it in online sales applications. This marks the beginning of a new
era for our platform and how it can be customised to and integrated in other
solutions", says Ben O'Donnell.
The release of the API will also enable third-party software developers to
create integrations with the BIMobject(®) platform within their own BIM
applications, giving their users direct access to the vast amount of digital
content and data that is hosted on bimobject.com. The API can be accessed from
smartphone applications, web applications, and desktop versions of any kind of
tool. Tools for configuration, calculation, and simulation - including any
smartphone, AR, or VR device - can now be enabled for direct communication with
the BIMobject(®) Cloud through the API.
"As different applications will be developed around the world and increase in
number, so will the the manufacturers' opportunities for exposure. This means
the visibility of their products will increase more rapidly on a global scale,
and their product information will be integrated in digital decision processes
far beyond BIM and CAD software", says Ben O'Donnell.

the forefront of digitalising the building industry. BIMobject provides a cloud-
based platform and powerful technology to make digital product information
available for Building Information Modelling (BIM), allowing its use early in
the building process for visualisation, specification, and analysis. The
platform collects valuable data that streamlines the construction industry
throughout the product lifecycle. More intelligent design and construction lead
to better product selections, reduced waste, and more efficient logistics during
the building process. At the same time, property management benefits from higher
quality, improved use of energy, and lower operating costs.

strategy. The company's offerings include development, hosting, management, and
publishing of digital versions of manufacturer products: BIM objects. Its
customers are building and interior product manufacturers who market their
products via the BIMobject(®) Cloud. The user base consists primarily of
architects, designers, and engineers, who access the BIMobject(®) Cloud through
CAD/BIM-applications, apps, and web services. The BIM objects are integrated
into a detailed model of the building, which increases the chance that the real
products will be selected for purchase.
