Knowing the Level of Development (LOD) that BIMIT delivers helps you set the right expectations for your project. BIMIT is built to LOD 200, which is ideal for design and planning — but it is not a substitute for construction-grade documentation or field verification.

LOD 200, defined

BIMIT is designed to achieve Level of Development (LOD) 200, as defined by the BIM Forum and BIM International.

• Element accuracy. At LOD 200, the model accurately represents the placement and sizing of elements — architectural and structural components are positioned and sized correctly.
• No materials or specifications. The model does not include material information or specific construction-element details, and it does not claim construction-grade accuracy.

A schematic-design-level model

BIMIT is best understood as a schematic-design-level BIM: it gives you a detailed visual representation, but should not be used as a definitive guide for construction.

Because point cloud registration from devices like the Matterport Pro2 or Leica BLK360 has inherent accuracy limits, BIMIT should not be treated as construction-grade.

Field verification still applies

BIMIT is a valuable tool in the design and planning phases — understanding its scope and limitations is key to using it well.
