Building Intelligence connector

A read-only MCP connector that lets Claude answer questions about real, scanned buildings: floor areas, room sizes, clearances, doors and windows, BIM/IFC models and LiDAR, each answer tagged with how accurate it is.

What it does

Each building was captured with a terrestrial LiDAR scanner and 360° cameras, then turned into a review-draft BIM (walls, openings, rooms, fixtures), floor plans, an IFC model and a queryable LiDAR occupancy grid. The connector serves that data to AI assistants. It cannot change anything: every tool is read-only.

Buildings

Building	Location	Accuracy gate	Highlights
Hyde Park Floral `hp-floral`	Cincinnati, OH	field verified ±4 cm	Retail florist: BIM, IFC, DXF plan, 12 panorama stations, LiDAR grid, 3 site laser checks
Cincinnati Boathouse `cjrc2026`	Newport, KY	decoder class ±7 cm	Rowing boathouse with 7 overhead doors: BIM, IFC, DXF plan, 81 panorama stations, LiDAR grid
Service Bay `kia-service-bay`	San Bernardino, CA	field verified ±8 cm	Vehicle service bay: BIM with 9 vehicles, IFC, LiDAR grid

The live list always comes from the List buildings tool. Buildings appear only after their owner approves publication.

How the accuracy gate works

Every answer that contains a dimension also carries the building's accuracy gate, so the assistant can say how far to trust it.

Field verified: the scan's registration and scale were checked on site with a laser distance meter against independent spans. The stated error (for example ±4 cm) and the evidence files are recorded, and the evidence is pinned by checksum: if it changes, the server refuses to publish. Individual BIM elements are not each checked, so confirm critical dimensions on site before ordering or fabrication.
Decoder class: ±7 cm from the processing pipeline, not checked on site. Good for planning, not for ordering.
Unverified: no accuracy claim. Dimensions should not be used for decisions.

Measurements are not a certified survey or appraisal.

Try asking

“What is the gross floor area of Hyde Park Floral, and how accurate is it?”
“In the Service Bay, how much clear space is there between the vehicle on the lift and the nearest wall?”
“How many overhead doors does the Cincinnati Boathouse have, and how wide are they?”
“Give me the IFC model for Hyde Park Floral.”

Limits

Read-only; no sign-in; 60 requests per minute per client.
Large files (IFC models, images) come back as download links rather than inline text.
Raw point clouds are not downloadable; LiDAR is available through queries only.
BIM models are review drafts. Missing elements are possible (for example, windows hidden behind displays).
