Leitfaden zur Erläuterung und Anwendung von EN ISO 29481-1 Bauwerksinformationsmodelle - Handbuch der Informationslieferungen - Teil 1: Methodik und Format
1.1 Allgemeines
Dieses Dokument stellt eine Anleitung zur Entwicklung eines Handbuchs der Informationslieferungen (IDM) nach EN ISO 29481 1 zur Verfügung, im Folgenden als „IDM-Norm“ bezeichnet. Dieses Dokument erklärt die wichtigsten Bestandteile und den Entwicklungsprozess der IDM-Methodik in nichttechnischer Sprache. Dieses Dokument soll Anwendern und Softwareanbietern helfen, die IDM-Norm bei der Definition von Informationsanforderungen und Informationsbereitstellungsleistungen zu verstehen und zu nutzen.
Die technische Umsetzung von IDM in einem Datenmodell, die Modell-Bereichs-Definition (MVD, en: model view definition), ist vom Anwendungsbereich dieses Dokuments ausgeschlossen. Die IDM-Norm führt das MVD-Konzept ein, legt es aber nicht im Detail fest.
In diesem Dokument werden auch einige Konzepte für Transaktionsrahmen verwendet, die in EN ISO 29481 2 eingeführt wurden. Die technischen XML- und XSD-Schemadefinitionen zur Unterstützung der Softwarelösungen werden in diesem Dokument nicht behandelt.
1.2 Hintergrund
Die primäre Referenz dieses Dokuments ist die IDM-Norm Teil 1 (EN ISO 29481 1:2017) (im Folgenden als IDM-Norm bezeichnet). Dieses Dokument hilft beim Verständnis und der Anwendung der IDM-Norm zur Beschreibung der Lieferung von Informationen. Dieses Dokument verwendet auch einige Konzepte, die in Teil 2 der IDM-Normenreihe (EN ISO 29481 2:2016) beschrieben werden. Es wurden beträchtliche Anstrengungen unternommen, um dieses Dokument mit der Terminologie und den Konzepten aus EN ISO 19650 1 und EN ISO 19650 2 in Einklang zu bringen.
Die Spezifikation nach dem Handbuch der Informationslieferungen (im Folgenden als IDM-Spezifikation bezeichnet) hilft dabei, den vollen Nutzen aus der Bauwerksinformationsmodellierung (BIM) zu ziehen. Wenn die benötigten Informationen mithilfe von BIM zur Unterstützung eines Bauprozesses oder Anwendungsfalls verfügbar sind und die Qualität der Informationen zufriedenstellend ist, wird der Prozess selbst erheblich verbessert. Die IDM-Norm bietet ein Verfahren zur Erstellung der Spezifikation.
Eine vollständige IDM-Spezifikation sollte zwei Perspektiven unterstützen: Anwenderanforderungen und technische Lösungen. Anwenderanforderungen beschreiben die erforderliche Informationslieferung und den Gesamtprozess, in dem der Informationsaustausch stattfindet. Die technische Lösung definiert ein Modell für Informationsaustausch-Anforderungen unter Verwendung eines harmonisierten Datenschemas.
EN ISO 29481 1 stellt eine Methodik und ein harmonisiertes Format zur Spezifizierung von Informationsanforderungen bereit. Es bietet ein Framework und eine Methodik zur Festlegung der erforderlichen Informationslieferung mit Prozess-Diagrammen und Informationsaustausch-Anforderungen.
EN ISO 29481 2 spezifiziert ein Interaktionsframework und ein Format zur Beschreibung von „Koordinationshandlungen“ zwischen Akteuren oder Parteien innerhalb einer Informationsbestellung. Es erleichtert die Interoperabilität zwischen im Bauprozess verwendeten Softwareanwendungen, um die digitale Zusammenarbeit zwischen den Akteuren im Bauprozess zu fördern. Darüber hinaus bildet es die Grundlage für einen genauen, zuverlässigen, wiederholbaren und hochwertigen Informationsaustausch.

Navodila za razumevanje in uporabo EN/ISO 29481-1 Informacijski modeli stavb - Priročnik z informacijami - 1. del: Metodologija in oblika
Ta dokument podaja navodila za pripravo priročnika z informacijami (IDM) v skladu s standardom EN ISO 29481-1 (v nadaljevanju »standard IDM«). Ta dokument na netehničen način pojasnjuje glavne komponente in postopek razvoja metodologije IDM. Cilj teh navodil je pomoč uporabnikom in prodajalcem programske opreme pri razumevanju ter uporabi standarda IDM za opredelitev zahtev glede informacij in končnih rezultatov.
Tehnična izvedba priročnika z informacijami v podatkovnem modelu – definicija prikazov modela 1) (MVD) ne spada na področje uporabe teh navodil. Standard IDM uvaja koncept definicije prikazov modela, vendar ga ne določa podrobno.
V teh navodilih se uporabljajo tudi nekateri koncepti transakcijskega okvirja, predstavljeni v standardu EN ISO 29481-2. Tehnične opredelitve shem XML in XSD, ki podpirajo programske rešitve, ne spadajo na področje uporabe teh navodil.
1) Definicija prikazov modela opredeljuje podatkovni model ali podsklop obstoječega podatkovnega modela, ki je potreben za podporo ene ali več posebnih zahtev glede izmenjave podatkov. Definicije prikazov modela se uporabljajo pri razvoju programske opreme in naj bodo strojno berljive. Definicijo prikazov modela, ki je namenjena enemu priročniku z informacijami, je mogoče uporabiti za filtriranje informacij v programskih orodjih v skladu s posebnimi zahtevami glede izmenjave. [VIR: EN ISO 29481-1:2017, 5.6.4].
1.1 Uvodne obrazložitve
Glavna referenca teh navodil je 1. del standarda IDM (EN ISO 29481-1:2017) (v nadaljevanju »standard IDM«). Ta navodila so v pomoč pri razumevanju in uporabi standarda IDM za opis posredovanja informacij. V teh navodilih se uporabljajo tudi nekateri koncepti, opisani v 2. delu skupine standardov IDM (EN ISO 29481-2:2016). Veliko prizadevanj je bilo vloženih v uskladitev teh navodil s terminologijo in koncepti, predstavljenimi v standardih EN ISO 19650-1 in EN ISO 19650-2.
Specifikacija priročnika z informacijami (v nadaljevanju »specifikacija IDM«) pomaga v celoti izkoristiti prednosti informacijskega modeliranja gradenj (BIM). Kadar so v okviru informacijskega modeliranja gradenj na voljo potrebne informacije za podporo gradbenega postopka oziroma primera uporabe in je kakovost teh informacij zadovoljiva, se sam postopek precej izboljša. Standard IDM zagotavlja metodo za izdelavo specifikacije.
Celotna specifikacija IDM naj podpira dva vidika: zahteve uporabnikov in tehnične rešitve. Zahteve uporabnikov opisujejo posredovanje potrebnih informacij in celoten proces, v okviru katerega pride do izmenjave informacij. Tehnična rešitev opredeljuje model zahtev glede izmenjave, ki uporablja usklajeno podatkovno shemo.
Standard EN ISO 29481-1 zagotavlja metodologijo in usklajeno obliko za določanje zahtev glede informacij. Ponuja okvir in metodo za določanje posredovanja potrebnih informacij z zemljevidi procesov in zahtevami glede izmenjave.
Standard EN ISO 29481-2 določa okvirne podatke o medsebojnem vplivanju in obliko za opis »usklajevalnih dejavnosti« med udeleženci ali strankami znotraj določitve. Poenostavlja interoperabilnost med programskimi aplikacijami, ki se uporabljajo v gradbenem postopku, za spodbujanje digitalnega sodelovanja med udeleženci v gradbenem postopku. Poleg tega zagotavlja podlago za natančno, zanesljivo, ponovljivo in visokokakovostno izmenjavo informacij.
1.2 Uporabniki teh navodil
Ta navodila so namenjena naročnikom, arhitektom, inženirjem, pogodbenikom, nadzornikom, organom in drugim strankam, ki določajo oziroma izvajajo posredovanje informacij. Standard IDM se je prvotno osredotočal na opredelitev rezultatov informacijskega modeliranja gradenj, vendar je njegovo področje uporabe precej obsežnejše. Uporabiti ga je mogoče za določitev katere koli zahteve za posredovanje informacij.
Čeprav razvijalci programske opreme in posamezniki, ki izvajajo prilagoditve tehnologije niso glavna ciljna skupina teh navodil, so jim lahko v pomoč pri lažjem razumevanju obstoječih in razvoju lastnih priročnikov z i

1 Scope
1.1 General
This document provides guidance on how to develop an information delivery manual (IDM) in
compliance with EN ISO 29481-1 hereafter referred to as the “IDM standard”. This document explains the
core components and development process of the IDM methodology in non-technical terms. This
document aims to help users and software vendors understand and utilize the IDM standard in defining
information requirements and deliverables.
The technical implementation of IDM in a data model, model view definition (MVD), is excluded from
this document’s scope. IDM standard introduces the MVD concept but does not specify it in detail.
This document also utilizes some transaction framework concepts introduced in EN ISO 29481-2. The
technical XML- and XSD-schema definitions supporting the software solutions are excluded from this
document.
1.2 Background
This document primary reference is the IDM standard part 1 (EN ISO 29481-1:2017) (hereafter referred
to as IDM standard). This document helps in understanding and using the IDM standard to describe
information delivery. This document also uses some concepts described in part 2 of the IDM standard
series (EN ISO 29481-2:2016). Considerable efforts have been made to align this document with the
terminology and concepts introduced in EN ISO 19650-1 and EN ISO 19650-2.
Information delivery manual specification (hereafter referred to as the IDM specification) provides help
in getting the full benefit from building information modelling (BIM). When the required information is
available using BIM to support a construction process or use case, and the quality of information is
satisfactory, the process itself is much improved. The IDM standard provides a method to create the
specification.
A complete IDM specification should support two perspectives: user requirements and technical
solutions. User requirements describe the needed information delivery and the overall process in which
information exchange occurs. The technical solution defines an exchange requirement model using a
harmonized data schema.
EN ISO 29481-1 provides a methodology and a harmonized format to specify information requirements.
It offers a framework and method to determine the needed information delivery with process maps and
exchange requirements.
EN ISO 29481-2 specifies an interaction framework and format to describe “coordination acts” between
actors or parties within an appointment. It facilitates interoperability between software applications
used in the construction process to promote digital collaboration between actors in the building
construction process. Also, it provides a basis for accurate, reliable, repeatable, and high-quality
information exchange.
An MVD defines a data model or a subset of an existing data model that is necessary to support one or many specific data
exchange requirements. MVDs are used in software development and should have a machine-readable representation. An MVD
that is dedicated to a single IDM can be used to filter information in software tools to a specific exchange requirement. [SOURCE:
EN ISO 29481-1:2017, 5.6.4].
1.3 Users of this guidance document
This document is intended for clients, architects, engineers, contractors, surveyors, authorities, and other
parties who need to specify or implement information delivery. Originally, the IDM standard was focused
on defining model-based deliverables, but the possible application of the standard is much broader. It can
be used to specify any requirement for information delivery.
Although software developers and technology adapters are not the primary audiences of this document,
it may help them better understand existing IDMs and develop their own IDMs.
1.4 Relation to EN ISO 19650
The IDM standard is a process-oriented methodology used to describe the information exchange
requirements for a particular purpose which may complement the information-management approach
outlined in the EN ISO 19650 series. Simultaneously, the IDM standard pre-dates EN ISO 19650 and has
a broader scope of application beyond model-based information exchanges.
Figure 1 — IDM specifications can support the definition of the information requirements and to
verify the information deliverables
The scope of EN ISO 19650-1 stipulates that information deliverables “should be described clearly within
the OIR, PIR, AIR or EIR”. Figure 1 depicts how IDMs can support the definition of information
deliverables for these requirements. The figure also shows how the IDM standard can be applied to use
cases outside of the EN ISO 19650 series scope. These use cases may include information requirements
for regulatory processes or other common demands such as national information standards. In addition,
Figure 1 presents how the IDM that is used to specify the exchange requirement can be used to verify the
information delivery.
1.5 How to use this guidance document
This document is split into two sections:
— The first section explains the IDM components and can be used to get a better understanding of the
IDM structure.
— The second section gives and overview of the IDM methodology and steps through how to create an
IDM.
In both sections the IDM standard can be used in parallel to this document.
Several similar terms are used in this document, the following list helps clarify these terms:
— IDM standard: this is the EN ISO 29481-1 standard itself (as indicated in 1.2 above);
— IDM specification: this is information delivery manual specification (as indicated in 1.2 above); and
— IDM method: This is the general method of developing an IDM.
As noted above, this document has references to part 2 of the IDM standard series (EN ISO 29481-2). To
avoid confusion, in these cases the standard code is mentioned in its full length i.e. EN ISO 29481-2.

Dies ermöglicht es auch Nicht-Technikern, relevante Aspekte der IDM-Standardisierung leichter zu erfassen und anzuwenden. Die Verwendung nicht-technischer Begriffe fördert die Zugänglichkeit und Anwendung des Standards in unterschiedlichen Kontexten, wodurch das Dokument als praktisches Werkzeug für alle Interessierten dient. Ein weiterer wichtiger Aspekt ist, dass das Dokument einige Konzepte des Transaktionsrahmens aus EN ISO 29481-2 integriert. Dies zeigt die Relevanz und Vernetzung des IDM-Standards mit anderen Normen im Bereich der Gebäudedatenmodellierung und fördert ein ganzheitliches Verständnis für die Anwendung und Integration in bestehende Systeme. Es ist allerdings zu beachten, dass die technische Umsetzung des IDM in einem Datenmodell, einschließlich der Definition des Model View Definition (MVD), nicht Teil des Umfangs dieses Dokuments ist. Das Dokument setzt zwar den MVD-Konzeptansatz in Bezug auf den IDM-Standard voraus, geht jedoch nicht ins Detail über deren spezifische technische Anforderungen oder Definitionen. Insgesamt stellt CEN/TR 17741:2021 eine bedeutende Ressource dar, die den Zugang zum IDM-Standard erleichtert und dessen Nutzung fördert. Die Stärkung des Verständnisses und die praktische Anwendbarkeit des IDM-Standards sind von hoher Relevanz für die Verbesserung der Qualität und Konsistenz von Informationsanforderungen und -lieferungen im Bereich Building Information Modeling (BIM).
