Improve the accuracy of staked or installed building components by coordinating survey data with the Revit model using Ideate BIMLink. The data can be received via a total station or other device from the project site (typically as a CSV file) and then imported as 'nodes' within the Revit project by using Ideate BIMLink's ability to create new Generic Model elements.
