IBM TRIRIGA CAD Integrator/Publisher

Integrated graphic modeling for visual facilities management

IBM® TRIRIGA® CAD Integrator/Publisher provides graphic modeling of workspaces, equipment and organizations. It enables you to visually manage facilities using floor plans and drawings created within AutoCAD and MicroStation, and connects computer-aided design (CAD) drawings and Building Information Models (BIM) with the IBM TRIRIGA database to provide bidirectional, automatic updates.

IBM TRIRIGA CAD Integrator/Publisher provides:

A bidirectional interface to exchange data automatically between CAD and BIM applications and the IBM TRIRIGA environment.
Query and management tools to find facilities information quickly and solve problems faster.
Online editing features to add and update data directly on drawings within the CAD and BIM applications.
Presentation capabilities to manage the visual look of drawings.

A bidirectional interface

Uses Autodesk AutoCAD or Bentley Systems MicroStation for direct integration with the IBM TRIRIGA environment.
Automatically updates associated objects in the IBM TRIRIGA database, conversely, changes made in the IBM TRIRIGA database automatically update in CAD drawings.
Integrates drawing-driven data directly with IBM TRIRIGA business objects through the IBM TRIRIGA Connector for Business Applications, a standard web services interface that uses SOAP.
Generates web-based floor plans that are viewable within IBM TRIRIGA applications and linked to live data.

Query and management tools

Provide visually rich search capabilities to find a single drawing, elements of a drawing or a cluster of related drawings.
Convert a CAD drawing into a Drawing Exchange Format (DXF) graphic to publish it for viewing by IBM TRIRIGA users.
Use CAD drawings to visualize facilities, equipment and people for faster comprehension of complex facilities management issues and opportunities.

Online editing features

Edit database information directly in a CAD drawing file by selecting the object and entering data.
Attach metadata to CAD objects and link the metadata to records in the IBM TRIRIGA database.
Create location records in the IBM TRIRIGA database directly from IBM TRIRIGA CAD Integrator/Publisher.
Associate multiple graphics in a drawing, such as floors and workspaces, with multiple records in one process.
