Possible usage of the architectural information

• Architectural Memory (Architectural Memory):

a global repository of general and specific knowledge concerning architecture and construction

• Virtual Simulation & Calculation (VSC):

calculation of load-bearing capacities, energy-efficiency, etc.• Virtual Reality – Visual Simulation (VRVS):

interactive visualisation tools allow optimal real-time interaction with the information
