PEX - Plan Extraktor

Processing plan data in building design holds significant efficiency potential, as much is still done manually. The project automates extracting key metrics from 2D as-built plans and generating 2D schematic diagrams from 3D MEP models.

Overview

In modern building design, there is significant potential for efficiency gains in the processing and transformation
of plan data. Despite advanced software, many analysis steps and the creation of derived
plans remain time-consuming, manual processes.
This research project addresses two specific challenges:
1. Analysis of 2D as-built plans: The extraction of key metrics (e.g., areas, room usage, number of objects)
from 2D architectural plans is a fundamental but often manual step.
2. Generation of 2D schematics: The creation of 2D schematic diagrams (e.g., for plumbing or ventilation)
from detailed 3D MEP models is a complex abstraction process that is rarely automated
