Cover Story: The heterogeneity of information models of the domains building information modeling (BIM) and urban information modeling (UIM) causes information silos that can be bridged through information integration methods such as instance-level linking. Current information integration efforts are generally limited to a specific situation: they are limited to specific data and to specific use cases. This study discusses the dependency of the link creation on different situational aspects, called contextual linking. Here, an application-oriented perspective on information integration is introduced, contextual linking is analyzed, and the relevance of contextual linking is demonstrated based on three different integration scenarios. The results of the discourse serve as a framework supporting the development of artifacts for linking heterogeneous information models from the domains BIM and UIM. View this paper.
