Digital Building Permitting: Taylor and Francis Proceedings in Civil and Structural Engineering
Editat de Judith Fauth, Stefan Fuchs, Robert Amor, Yonghan Kim, Simon Fischer, Jernej Tekavec, Ronny Weinkauf, Francesca Noardoen Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 noi 2026
The book covers a wide range of topics, including process modelling and optimisation, automated compliance checking, Building Information Modeling (BIM), Geographic Information Systems (GIS), semantic technologies, artificial intelligence, information management, governance, regulatory complexity, and comparative analyses of building permitting systems. Collectively, they demonstrate that digitalisation has become more than a technological objective; it has become a means of understanding building permitting itself. Alongside advances in digital methods and tools, the contributions provide new insights into organisational structures, decision making, legal interpretation, institutional responsibilities, and human collaboration. The volume illustrates how technological and non-technological research perspectives complement one another in establishing the scientific foundations of digital building permitting.
This book is intended for researchers, practitioners, public authorities, policymakers, software developers, and postgraduate students working in digital construction, BIM, GIS, artificial intelligence, regulatory technologies, digital government, and public administration. It will also serve as a valuable reference for anyone interested in the future development of building permitting and its digitalisation.

He studied civil engineering and graduated with a doctoral thesis on the automation of building code-compliant escape route analysis and checking for digital building permits. His work generally focuses on process automation using digital building models and openBIM standards. This involves defining information requirements, carrying out automated verification and analysis, and processing results. One of his major projects was the BRISE-Vienna research project, which focused on developing an openBIM building permit process for the City of Vienna, including semi-automated compliance checking. He also disseminates knowledge about BIM and open data standards in this field as a co-author and participates in a national standards committee on openBIM building authority procedures.
Jernej Tekavec is a Slovenian researcher, and university teacher at the Chair of Geoinformatics and Real Estate Cadastres, Faculty of Civil and Geodetic Engineering, University of Ljubljana (UL FGG). He earned his PhD in Geodesy from UL FGG in 2021. His doctoral research focused on the development of the existing real estate cadastre towards a multipurpose 3D cadastral system. His main research interests include real estate cadastres, 3D cadastral systems, 3D city and indoor modelling, the integration of building information modelling (BIM) and geographic information systems (GIS), spatial data interoperability, and advanced 3D spatial analysis. His work also addresses cadastral data quality, the modelling and integration of indoor and outdoor spaces, and the processing, management, and visualisation of large geospatial datasets. He is actively involved in national and international research and development projects, professional networks, workshops, forums, and scientific conferences. Through this work, he contributes to the development of methods and digital solutions that support modern land administration, spatial planning, geospatial data management, and evidence-based decision-making. He has authored and co-authored scientific publications on topics such as 3D cadastral modelling, indoor spatial models, procedural generation of large 3D datasets, spatial data integration, and the quality of cadastral boundary data. Alongside his research activities, he is involved in teaching geoinformatics, programming and geospatial data processing, spatial statistics, and project-based courses at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. His teaching emphasises the practical application of modern geospatial technologies and the integration of theoretical knowledge with real-world datasets and problems.
Ronny Weinkauf is a Professor of Computer Science, Databases, and Distributed Systems at Merseburg University of Applied Sciences, as well as a practitioner with many years of experience in the digitisation of public administration. As a co-founder of brain-SCC GmbH, he develops innovative software solutions and digital services for municipalities, government agencies, and other public institutions. His academic and professional work focuses on the redesign of digital administrative and permitting processes based on cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, cloud computing, building information modelling, geographic information systems, and digital twins. A particular focus is on digital building permits and on scalable solutions that provide end-to-end support to applicants, planners, local building authorities, and other stakeholders throughout the entire process. Ronny Weinkauf combines academic research with the practical implementation of large-scale digitisation projects in the public sector. He has contributed to the development of collaborative technologies and to the nationwide “One-for-All” solution for digital building permit applications in Germany. His current work examines how AI, BIM, and geodata can improve decision-making processes, automate selected reviews, and make administrative procedures more efficient, transparent, and user-friendly. His goal is to introduce modern technologies nationwide, including within federal, state, and local government administrations, thereby creating significant, measurable added value.
