GEOMAPI
This innovative toolbox, developped by KU Leuven Geomatics, jointly processes close-range sensing resources (point clouds, images) and BIM models for the AEC industry.
More specifically, we combine semantic web technologies with state-of-the-art open source geomatics APIs
to process and analyse big data in construction applications.
Installation
Use the package manager pip to install geomapi as a user.
conda create --name geomapi_user python=3.10
pip install geomapi
Or as a developer, install the dependencies from the root folder through the command line.
pip install -r requirements.txt
