The structure everything else hangs on.
XO Spatial is the structure underneath every BrieXO app. Organisation, project, building, floor, elevation or location, element type and element instance are real records with their own permissions, not text fields on a form. Every photo, RFI, decision and labour record anchors to one of them. That is why a question like "what happened at panel 14?" has an answer in seconds instead of forty minutes of folder-hunting.
Buildings aren't folders. Why manage them like they are?
Traditional construction software treats buildings like filing cabinets. Documents go in folders. Photos go in folders. Snags go in folders. But when someone asks "what's happening on Level 2?" - you're digging through five different systems.
Every piece of data in BrieXO anchors to a physical location. That is not a feature; it is the foundation everything else is built on. Each level of the structure is a real record with its own permissions, so access can be granted for the job someone is actually on. Most construction software calls a project tree "spatial". This is the real thing.
Because everything anchors, one call lists everything held at a node across every app, and deleting a node shows you an impact preview first: what would go with it, in which app, before anything happens.
XO Spatial holds no evidence of its own, and it has no screen of its own. It makes every other app's evidence locatable, which is the stronger claim and the truer one. It is the common language that connects your entire project.
One structure, shaped like the building.
Organisation, project, building, floor, elevation or location, element type, element instance. It is not a rigid chain. An elevation spans the floors it covers rather than sitting under one, and a location belongs to the project, so the structure bends to match the building instead of making the building match it.
Buildings
The top of the physical structure on a project. Each one is a real record with its own permissions, not a label.
Floors
The horizontal divisions of a building. What most systems stop at, and where most questions actually start.
Elevations or locations
The flexible tier. An elevation spans the floors it covers instead of sitting under one, and a location belongs to the project, so you use whichever matches the work.
Element types and instances
A type is the thing you specify. An instance is the one on the building, so a question can be about panel 14 and not about a folder.
Everything connects through spatial context
When you define your building in XO Spatial, every other app understands where things are. Documents, snags, photos, costs, all queryable by location.
XO Docs
Documents linked to floors and elevations. Find every drawing for the north elevation in one click.
XO Field
Snags and inspections tagged to locations. See all open issues on Tower A.
XO Commercial
Costs tracked against the structure. Know exactly where your budget is going.
XO BIM
Import spatial structure directly from IFC models. Your BIM defines your hierarchy.
XO Capture
Photos can carry location context where metadata or configured spatial references are available.
XO Prog
Progress tracked per location. Visual progress maps by floor and elevation.
Ask questions. Get answers by location.
Stop hunting through folders. With XO Spatial, you can filter any data by where it is in the building. One query, instant results.
