This document discusses using building information modeling (BIM) for site design and master planning projects. It covers industry trends in 3D surveying, site design, and site BIM management. It also discusses developing a masterplan vision with multi-project coordination and a campus map. Future trends mentioned include integrating geographic information systems and bringing other consultants into BIM workflows.
