BIM, GIS & Digital Twins introduce or emphasize several requirements regarding the data. This mostly concern the built environment but also orientate the way the geoscience data are expected to be delivered.
The main concern is about semantics. As also identified as the main criteria of interoperability in the FAIR principles, data shall be described in a non-ambiguous way. Those definitions shall be shared by the community independently from the standard that is used. For that purpose, a federation of model is needed. Then OGC and bSI will derive logical models for OGC based and bSI based (IFC) standards.
This effort would fit into the ongoing collaboration between OGC initiatives and bSI projects on georeferencing, infrastructures alignments, procedural geometries, voxels, etc...

Although, this project is the opportunity to align with other standards. A non-exhaustive list of them include AGS/AGSi, DIGGS, Geo3DML, GeoValML, BoreholeML, ResqML...
On the OGC side, this project is identified as the main contributor to leverage the OGC based standards. For the moment, the IFC schema extension for Geotechnics is mainly supported by the GeoSubgroup of the IFC Tunnel but it aims to serve all the IFC infrastructure projects.
