Brick Schema and RealEstateCore announce a major harmonization effort between two smart building metadata standards
Cooperation between leading industry standards supercharges the digital transformation of the real estate and smart building industry
Today the Brick Consortium and RealEstateCore announce the two groups are making it easier to create rich semantic models of smart buildings and real estate portfolios. Currently, at-scale digital transformation in the real estate industry, within and across organizational boundaries, is challenging because of the number of competing smart building metadata standards. These standards often have significant overlap in features, but are not directly compatible, making it difficult for building stakeholders to exchange data and application developers to be able to fully support all building systems.
