ArcGIS GeoBIM<\/strong><\/a> delivers a connected data environment that seamlessly links architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) information in Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud) with geospatial data and services in ArcGIS. By bringing these platforms together, teams can smoothly collaborate from initial design through operations to empower better decisions and project outcomes.<\/p>\n The June 2026 update of ArcGIS GeoBIM enhances BIM-to-GIS workflows with Autodesk Forma, giving teams greater control over the BIM data they sync and making it easier to identify and resolve synchronization issues. With Revit view-based filtering, pre-sync and post-sync analysis reports, and improved georeferencing of Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) files, teams can create cleaner and more focused GIS experiences, reduce rework, and collaborate more effectively across BIM and GIS teams.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":2967689,"id":2967689,"title":"arcgis-geobim-june-2026-update-cd","filename":"arcgis-geobim-june-2026-update-cd.png","filesize":391784,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arcgis-geobim-june-2026-update-cd.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/geobim\/announcements\/whats-new-in-arcgis-geobim-june-2026\/arcgis-geobim-june-2026-update-cd","alt":"","author":"288222","description":"","caption":"Create maps, apps, and scenes with ArcGIS GeoBIM to keep your team connected with real-time updates and streamlined communication.","name":"arcgis-geobim-june-2026-update-cd","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":2964663,"date":"2026-05-25 12:30:57","modified":"2026-05-25 12:33:13","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/png","type":"image","subtype":"png","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":826,"height":465,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arcgis-geobim-june-2026-update-cd-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arcgis-geobim-june-2026-update-cd.png","medium-width":464,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arcgis-geobim-june-2026-update-cd.png","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":432,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arcgis-geobim-june-2026-update-cd.png","large-width":826,"large-height":465,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arcgis-geobim-june-2026-update-cd.png","1536x1536-width":826,"1536x1536-height":465,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arcgis-geobim-june-2026-update-cd.png","2048x2048-width":826,"2048x2048-height":465,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arcgis-geobim-june-2026-update-cd.png","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2026\/05\/arcgis-geobim-june-2026-update-cd.png","wide_image-width":826,"wide_image-height":465}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":" <\/p>\n Visit the product documentation<\/a> <\/strong>for more details on the latest enhancements now available in ArcGIS GeoBIM.

By reducing uncertainty and rework, teams can keep project data and coordination moving between BIM and GIS workflows.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n ArcGIS GeoBIM now provides more consistent georeferencing and placement for IFC models by more reliably interpreting location information across different IFC versions.<\/p>\n This makes IFC handoffs into GIS more predictable and reduces the risk of misplaced models and processing failures.
