3D building model materials auto-populator

A system for automatic building material ordering from a multi-dimensional building model comprising:

• a multi-dimensional building model database operable to store an unscaled multi-dimensional building model;
• and
• a processor communicatively coupled to the multi-dimensional building model database and operable to:
• receive a plurality of captured building images;
• retrieve an unscaled multi-dimensional building model, wherein the unscaled multidimensional building model includes one or more architectural elements present in the captured building images;
• extract a scaling factor of the unscaled multi-dimensional building model wherein extracting a scaling factor comprises correlating pixels of one or more architectural elements present in at least one of the captured building images with pixels of the one or more architectural elements of the unscaled multi-dimensional building model;
• scale the unscaled multi-dimensional building model using the scaling factor;
• calculate measurements of one or more architectural elements located on one or more planes within the scaled multi-dimensional building model, the measurements of the one or more architectural elements based on the scaling factor;
• determine manufacturer product information corresponding to the measurements of the one or more architectural elements;
• determine availability of manufacture products, based on the manufacturer product information, from one or more providers of the manufacturer products based on the measurements and a total count of the one or more architectural elements;
• and
• order the available manufacturer products.
