Visual Search for Drawings
Search for construction details using images or sketches instead of keywords.
Definition
Visual Search for Drawings enables users to find similar construction details by uploading an image, sketch, or photo rather than typing keywords. AI analyzes the visual content—line patterns, shapes, and layout—to find matching or similar details in the firm's drawing archives. This is particularly valuable when designers know what they're looking for visually but don't know the proper terminology or file location.
Examples
Uploading a rough sketch to find similar standard details
Photographing an existing condition to find matching details
Finding visually similar details across different projects
