Insights on BIM, automation and infrastructure projects
Project knowledge piles up in many places. I gathered mine in an Obsidian vault and connected it directly to Claude through the Model Context Protocol. How I built the vault, set up the MCP bridge and what it brings to everyday infrastructure BIM, with an honest assessment after several weeks of practice.
Autodesk has released the Fusion MCP server: it lets Claude model directly inside Autodesk Fusion. We tested the tool on a road grate and a hydrant. An honest field report with setup guide, iteration images and a clear assessment of where the value for BIM geometry lies today.
A BIM model lands 500 km from the correct location, sits at the origin, or is placed differently by two tools. That is not an export error, that is a georeferencing problem. This article explains the LoGeoRef concept from level 10 to 50, the relevant IFC entities, and the most common real-world mistakes.
A site manager builds an AI dashboard for his construction schedule. I integrate Claude into a customer's online shop to analyse orders. Both sound useful, but is an AI actually allowed to access customer data? A practical analysis of the Swiss FADP.
SBB and the City of Zurich operate publicly accessible BIM object databases. We analyzed the web applications, reconstructed the underlying interfaces, and built a Blender add-on from them. A comparison of both platforms and a look at the automation potential.
Hours spent fine-tuning a Twinmotion visualization? By combining Twinmotion with Krea AI, the effort can be significantly reduced. Directly from the BIM model, in real time.
