System and method for virtual region based access control operations using bim

A method comprising:

• a user interface device displaying a three-dimensional model of a secured area based on a building information model (BIM) of the secured area;
• the user interface device displaying a representation of each of a plurality of security devices in the secured area on the three-dimensional model of the secured area based on respective coordinates of each of the plurality of security devices in the BIM;
• the user interface device receiving first user input dividing the three-dimensional model of the secured area into a plurality of subareas;
• the user input device receiving second user input identifying a change in at least one operating parameter for at least one of the plurality of subareas;
• and
• applying the change in the at least one operating parameter to security devices in the plurality of security devices that are represented on the three-dimensional model of the secured area within the at least one of the plurality of subareas.
