To drive business development, commercial real estate needs to implement a Building Operating System (BOS) based on standards that will make it easy to develop digital twins of their buildings. This type of operating system (BOS) can open new possibilities for IT managers to support their focus on developing [...]
There are no industries that can avoid the adjustment to become more data-driven to meet the demands of the consumers in the future. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that your commercial organization implements data-driven real estate decision-making to help drive innovation and effectiveness. There are several areas where [...]
I am sure we can all agree that live reports are superior. After integrating smart building devices in many buildings, we can now understand the energy consumption and what we can do to use buildings more efficiently. But to make this a reality, we need to access the live data to make timely decisions, not making yearly predictions.
From day one, when Vasakronan implemented ProptechOS, the goal has always been to optimize their buildings within a range of business-critical areas, sustainability, well-being, productivity, and cost savings. Now they can see the results and they are above expectations.
We are announcing that the RealEstateCore Consortium, Microsoft, and Idun Real Estate Solutions AB are aligning RealEstateCore to Microsoft’s open-source Smart Buildings Digital Twins Description Language (DTDL).
Let us tell you about the ProptechOS Partner Program, it was created by and for the real estate industry using the open standard RealEstateCore. The program unlocks business value from the generated data with the help of new applications in combination with the ProptechOS platform from Idun.
Building Topology Ontology provides detailed spatial information from BIM/IFC, while RealEstateCore adds language for facility maintenance, certification, and financial aspects etc. Valuable data flows more freely, formerly complicated system integrations become easier and more reliable, and building managers gain a consistent overview of building operations.
Non-profit trade association Object Management Group® (OMG®) with founders Ansys, Dell, Lendlease and Microsoft, today announced the formation of Digital Twin Consortium™. Digital twins, virtual models of a process, product or service that allow for data analysis and system monitoring via simulations, can be challenging to implement due to a lack of open-source software, interoperability issues, legacy systems, and high costs.
Companies today have access to more data than ever before, but, unless they understand what it means, its value is limited. Sweden’s largest real estate company, Vasakronan, is using Idun ProptechOS built on top of Microsoft Azure to process and analyze the massive amounts of data generated by its commercial properties.
Today it requires operators to go out and manually read the sensor data from each individual building, but there is a new solution that allows the data to be in real-time and used to more than certification but also optimization. Idun ProptechOS analyses and collates all the sensor data automatically.
