BIMForum did a major overhaul of its Level of Development (LOD) Spec for the 2023 release in order to enhance its consistency and usability. In addition, the section on landscaping was greatly expanded and enriched through collaboration with the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA). This webinar will explore these enhancements and provide a detailed look at how the LOD Framework has been adapted to the landscaping discipline.
Learning Objectives:
- Apply the LOD framework to landscape models
- Identify the consistent logical threads that apply throughout the Spec.
- Explain the defined terms used throughout the Spec
- Understand the impact of the 2020 update to the LOD definitions
