DynaMaps and Revit – Adding Context to Your Models (w/Mostafa)

I have been using Open Street Map data in other software for years to add context to scenes… When I first saw DynaMaps I had to know more about how it was being done INSIDE of Revit…

On the episode of BIM After Dark Live we will be welcoming Mostafa El Ayoubi. Mostafa is an architect and civil engineer. He is the creator of Dynamo packages like DynaMaps and Data-Shapes.

Dynamo is a great place to make different tools and data sources meet and talk to one another, and this is exactly what the DynaMaps package does.

This episode will introduce the genesis of the package and it’s foundations as well as some workflows showing how to get site geometry inside Dynamo and push it to Revit will then be live demoed.

Also, this will be another “crossover” with Paul Aubin and the ChiNamo users group! Come join the fun, ask some questions, and learn something new!
