  • Publication number: 20240070333
    Abstract: A method generates a virtual environment representing a large-scale capital project with a plurality of objects. Each object corresponds to at least one of a plurality of files. The method further associates a user indicator with a given object of the plurality of objects after access to a given file. The given file is at least one of the plurality of files and associated with the given object. The method also positions a visual representation of the user indicator in the virtual environment as a function of the given object. The visual representation of the user indicator includes an interactive interface for user information. The method further receives a request via the interactive interface to contact a user corresponding to the user indicator.

  • Patent number: 11592954
    Abstract: A method edits a property value of a model object for a large-scale capital project. The method displays a 3D model of the large-scale capital project in a graphical user interface. The 3D model has a plurality of model objects. The method selects one or more model objects in the graphical user interface, thereby defining one or more selected model objects. The method also selects one or more properties of the selected model object to view in a graphical overlay, thereby defining one or more selected properties. The method also generates a graphical overlay adjacent to or over each of the one or more selected model objects. The graphical overlay includes values for the one or more selected properties. The method modifies a value of the one or more selected properties in the graphical overlay, thereby defining a modified property value.
