Farpointe Data, a DORMA Group Company, the access control industry’s trusted global partner for RFID solutions, today announced that data rich AutoDesk® Revit® BIM (Building Information Modeling) objects for Farpointe Data contactless card readers and long range receivers are now available on the ARCAT.com website. ARCAT is a major publisher of building product information. Anyone can use these objects at no charge.

“In addition to creating accurate graphics, ARCAT and Farpointe have added appropriate product data to each object,” emphasizes Scott Lindley, president of Farpointe Data, “This will save architects and engineers a significant amount of time doing data entry and product research while determining which of our wide selection of contactless proximity, smart card or long range reader models to specify.”

All of Farpointe’s objects, graphics and content are uniform and modifiable for ease of use. In addition to product information, ARCAT has embedded links in the objects to Farpointe’s CSI 3-Part specs.

According to Lindley, ARCAT and Farpointe Data uphold the belief that high quality graphics are only the tip of the building information modeling iceberg and it is the limitless amount of information held within the model that is driving the A/E/C community to adopt parametric software platforms such as Revit.

Since 2003, Farpointe Data, a DORMA Group company, has become the global partner of choice for premium RFID solutions, including proximity, smart and long range solutions, for electronic access control professionals around the world.
