Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for generating presentations of views of building entities according to an interaction graph. One of the methods includes processing building information model data to identify a plurality of building entities, wherein each building entity represents a respective feature of a building modeled by the data. Relationships between different respective pairs of the building entities are determined. The relationships are traversed according to simulated user interactions with respective presentations of a plurality of the building entities. At each subsequent building entity encountered by traversing the plurality of relationships, a respective presentation of a view of the building entity is generated, wherein the respective presentation includes one or more selectable references to one or more other views of one or more other building entities corresponding to one of the determined relationships between the building entities.
