The article compares Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Computer-Aided Design (CAD), highlighting their distinct applications in construction. BIM excels in creating data-rich 3D models for collaborative project management across a building's lifecycle, while CAD focuses on precise 2D and 3D drafting for detailed design elements. The text emphasizes that both are valuable tools, with BIM ideal for holistic project oversight and CAD best suited for specific component detailing. Successful projects often integrate both systems, leveraging their complementary strengths for optimal efficiency. A case study showcases how using Matterport's digital twin technology significantly reduced the cost and time associated with BIM file creation.
