Contemporary Building Information Modelling (BIM) has had a huge impact on the design, construction and management of modern buildings – enabling improvements across a wide range of areas, with information on item costs, materials, vendors and a whole host of other details accessible directly within a 3D model of a building. BIM principles may also offer advantages for the management of heritage sites, but using existing BIM solutions may not be straightforward. A purpose-built alternative, the Heritage Information Model (HIM), built using a current game-engine, is detailed and discussed here.
