The International Journal of 3-D Information Modeling (IJ3DIM) focuses on three research domains: building information modeling, 3D GIS, and integration of 3D information in the urban built environment. IJ3DIM facilitates the exchange of current scientific information, as well as sharing of state-of-the art technological developments within the AEC industry. The journal provides a forum for information dissemination between academics and academics/professionals associated with city planning and management, infrastructure management, all disciplines of geosciences, building and civil engineering, disaster management, logistics, environmental planning and conservation, computer graphics, data management, gaming, and so forth. In addition to academics, the primary audience of the journal also includes engineers, architects, contractors, consultants, and facility managers. IJ3DIM publishes original research articles, case studies, reviews and best practices, and applications, including mathematical models and algorithms.
Mission & Scope:
The mission of the International Journal of 3-D Information Modeling (IJ3DIM) is to provide a comprehensive and collective body of knowledge in the domains of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and 3D Geographical/Geospatial Information Models & Systems (3D GIS).

The mission of the International Journal of 3-D Information Modeling (IJ3DIM) is to provide a comprehensive and collective body of knowledge in the domains of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and 3D Geographical/Geospatial Information Models & Systems (3D GIS). The journal stimulates the sharing of knowledge, research approaches and practical experience in domains related to BIM, 3D GIS and Urban Information Fusion and combines the worlds of BIM and GIS toward integrated management and re-use of “3D semantically rich information”. IJ3DIM encourages developments in BIM, 3D GIS, City Modeling (including Indoor Modeling). IJ3DIM focuses on both advanced technologies and soft aspects, including human, process, organizational, industrial level problems, relating to BIM, 3D GIS and Urban Information Fusion. The journal also facilitates the sharing of scientific knowledge related to the development of indoor applications, such as indoor navigation, evacuation, facility management, intelligent buildings, and sustainable buildings.

View Full Editorial PolicyArticle Processing Charge (APC):
Payment of the APC fee (directly to the publisher) by the author or a funding body is not required until AFTER the manuscript has gone through
the full double-anonymized peer review process and the Editor(s)-in-Chief at his/her/their full discretion has/have decided to accept the manuscript based

article processing charge (APC) to offset the costs of all of the activities associated with the publication of the article manuscript, including:
- Digital tools used to support the manuscript management and review process
- Typesetting, formatting and layout
- Online hosting
- Submission of the journal's content to numerous abstracts, directories, and indexes
- Third-party software (e.g. plagiarism checks)
- Editorial support which includes manuscript tracking, communications, submission guideline checks, and communications with authors and reviewers
- All promotional support and activities which include metadata distribution, press releases, promotional communications, web content, ads, fliers, brochures, postcards, etc. for the journal and its published contents
- The fact that all published articles will be freely accessible and able to be posted and disseminated widely by
the authors - Professional line-by-line English language copy editing and proofreading*
*This service is only performed on article manuscripts with fully paid (not discounted or waived) APC fees.
APC Subsidizing and Funding
To assist researchers in covering the costs of the APC in OA publishing, there are various sources of OA funding.
Additionally, unlike many other publishers, IGI Global offers flexible subsidies, 100% Open Access APC funding, discounts, and more.
