ABSTRACT
In France, the MINnD project aims at extending Building Information Modeling (BIM) capacities for its application to infrastructures such as roads, bridges and railways. The MINnD Use Case 8 (UC8) is about Underground Infrastructures, and deals with both the description of the tunnel, its equipment parts and environment, with a main focus on pre-feasibility study to the construction phase.
This paper deals with the description of the environment part. It identifies exchange requirements in geotechnical engineering and introduce solutions for data organization and provision. This encompasses the standardization of data such as observations and measurements; geological, hydrogeological and geotechnical models; impact on anthropic and natural environment; structure sizing and proposition of construction methods and risk assessment.
In that context, propositions of reuse and extension of existing standards for geoscience data, such as GeoSciML and GroundWaterML2 from the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) are developed and discussed.
