Jeddah Historical Building Information Modelling "JHBIM" – Object Library

A specialized digital library of Hijazi architectural elements, developed using laser scanning and image survey data, significantly accelerates the creation of Historical Building Information Models (HBIM) for heritage sites like Old Jeddah. This innovation addresses a critical gap in HBIM applications by providing a comprehensive, reusable database tailored to the unique design features of historic structures in Al-Balad district. The library streamlines documentation and conservation efforts, reducing time and resources required for modeling while preserving intricate details essential for heritage preservation.
